Read Through the Bible in a Year 2018 Day 240: A Plea

Good morning, everyone!

Today I read Lamentations 3:37-5:22.

The people have been captured. They have been overtaken by their enemies. They are dying, either by the sword or from starvation. It looks bleak.

Yet Jeremiah still cries out to God. He knows that it is never too late to ask God for help. Chapter 5 is his plea for the deliverance of God's people. He begs for relief, for salvation. He prays for mercy.

And we already know that God is merciful. We also know that He did not wipe out the entire nation of Israel.

I hope you'll join me tomorrow when I read Ezekiel 1-4.
