I'VE FOUND IT
Today's reading:  Jeremiah 22-26

I've located my personal verse in the Bible.  It speaks of me.  It points to me.  It reeks of me.  It sums up my life in a few simple words...

"...Since childhood you have been that way--you simply will not listen!"  Jeremiah 22:21 NLT

I've always spoken when He's asked me to keep my mouth shut.

I've gone my own way when He's whispered a different path to my heart.

I've worried when He's unquestionably told me to know Him and be still.

I've turned and run when He's told me to stand and watch Him fight.

I've questioned when He's put my answer in black and white--and sometimes in red.

And yet?  He still loves me.  Still seeks me.  Still send His Son to die or my sins--all of them, including the ones brought upon myself by not listening!
