Words To Ponder Upon...

Reading from the book of Jeremiah this morning, these words caught my attention and therefore I am pondering...

"But my people have exchanged their Glory for worthless idols."

"My people have committed two sins:
They have forsaken me, the spring of living water,
and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water."

"Your wickedness will punish you; your backsliding will rebuke you."

"I had planted you like a choice vine of sound and reliable stock.
How then did you turn against me into a corrupt, wild vine?"

"They have turned their backs to me and not their faces yet when they are in trouble, they say,
'Come and save us!'"

"They did not respond to correction."

"You will be disappointed by Egypt as you were by Assyria.
You will also leave that place with your hands on your head,
for the Lord has rejected those you trust; you will not be helped by them."
