Good Morning Beloved,
Hi, it has been awhile since I last wrote to you.. I have been reading out loud to my house from the Children Living Bible since January.. I am not very far into it yet ... I have just this morning finished Lamentations... That is what is on my mind today.. In the book of Jeremiah it speaks about what will happen to Jerusalem if they don't change what they are doing.. It talks about all the wrath of God and what will happen to them, if no change. It speaks about how the people believed and listened to the false prophets and the lies they spoke. It then goes on to tell us what did happen because they refused to change.. Lamentations tells us how they lamented..
LAMENT: to express or feel deep sorrow; to regret deeply
So, after the fact... they felt regret and sorrow. While I was reading this I thought about my own country and how we have done the same as Jerusalem did in the time of Jeremiah.. We have believed and listened to all the false prophets of our day and have not changed the way we do things.. We are following in the footsteps of old. We should listen to the past and learn from it. Why don't we? We should be repenting of our sins and not just keep on believing that it won't happen to us. Worship of idols is what Jeremiah talks about.... What is the idol we worship today? OURSELVES. We think we can do anything we want and that we won't have to pay any price for it... Well, we are WRONG.
If God punished Jerusalem the city he loved.. What makes us think we won't be punished too? Please, as you go about your day today pray for our country and the people in it... Please know that I am praying for you and my country.
God Bless you and I pray that all will repent of their own sins and accept Christ Jesus as your Savior today.. He is coming soon.. Please get ready.. My heart is very heavy for souls... It is real, Jesus Christ is coming soon..
With the love of Christ Jesus , your sister in Christ , vickie
