Jeremiah’s message had been ignored. His faith was sorely tested.
Despite all of this, he was able to say, “Sing to the Lord! Praise the
Lord!” (Jeremiah 20:13). This was not his constant theme. In the very
next verse, he says, “Cursed is the day that I was born.” We are pulled
this way and that way by a turmoil of confused and confusing emotions.
Our heart is a battleground. May the Lord lift us out of depression and
defeat. May He lift us into vigour and victory.
