Reading for July 31st

 Read Jeremiah 20.7-13. In 20.7-13: Jeremiah's fifth confession. Jeremiah blames his captivity on God, who has given him words of terror to announce. In verse 9: Jeremiah tried to withhold his message of violence, but it was like fire: He could not hold it in. Jeremiah's message is not his own but is from God alone. In verses 11-13: Jeremiah remembers God is with him and that the word will be accomplished. Comments or Questions..
