Jeremiah 7 – 9 and Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days

Jeremiah 7 - 9

I wonder where Jeremiah spoke the Lord’s messages before the Lord told him to give his messages at th entrance to the Lord’s Temple. The message was clear: If the people would quit being evil, te Lord would let them stay in their own land, but they were not to be fooled that just because the Lord’s Temple was there, they were not to think the Lord would not punish them as he promised. God repeats the fact that he wants obedience rather than sacrifice, otherwise they will end up like Israel (as opposed to Judah).

We see how Jeremiah is devastated by the situation and the message he must deliver. His grief was “beyond healing” and his heart was “broken.” He wishes he could just go away, forget the people, and live in a traveler’s shack in the desert. He saw the destruction of Jerusalem coming. He urges everyone to learn to mourn, because they will be doing a lot of it.

Tomorrow, we’ll be reading Jeremiah 10 - 13.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days

Today, I went to AMC and saw Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days. This is the third in a series. They are such funny movies and this one was just as good as the other two, if not better.  Go see it if you get a chance.

Until next time…
