Jeremiah 23
In the midst of Israel's sin and God's anger, we can also see God's grace and His faithfulness as He tells them of a coming savior - Jesus Christ. God never stops loving us and He loves us so much that He sent His one and only Son to die for us.

My Prayer: Lord Jesus, You ARE an amazing God - slow to anger and abounding in love. Thank You Jesus that You are so full of grace. Of course I am not deserving of such grace. I miss the mark and I worry. Please forgive me Jesus and help me overcome such sin and turn towards You. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, and mind and love others as You do. Help me grow in my faith. Give Lisa and myself wisdom and strength. Please heal Lisa of her cancer and from the side effects of chemo. Help us lead Zach and Dustin to You Jesus and for them to choose You as their Lord and Savior. Please provide Godly friends and spouses to Zach and Dustin. Help me serve You, my family, my church, and others. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
The days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will raise up for David a righteous Branch,
a King who will reign wisely and do what is just and right in the land. In his days Judah will be saved and Israel will live in safety. This is the name by which he will be called: The Lord Our Righteous Savior. v5-6
