CURSED
Today's reading: Jeremiah 16-18

"This is what the Lord says: Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans and turn their hearts away from the Lord. They are like stunted shrubs in the desert, with no hope for the future. They will live in the barren wilderness, on the salty flats where no one lives." Jeremiah 17:5-6 NLT

Cursed-being under or deserving a curse.

Curse-a prayer or invocation for harm or injury to come upon one.

Be very careful where you put your trust.

Where your assurance lies.

In what and in whom your comfort comes.

What gives you peace.

What makes you happy.

No one wants to be a 'stunted shrub living on salty flats'!
