Deep Verbs of Jeremiah 31
I loved reading this week of some of the neat things God does. All in one single chapter (out of 1189 in the whole Bible), here are some of God's described actions/promises to His people:
God promises to:
- Be God (v. 1)
- Give rest (v. 2)
- Love with an everlasting love (v. 3)
- Build up (v. 4)
- Gather (v. 8)
- Lead (v. 9)
- Watch over (v. 10)
- Ransom (v. 11)
- Redeem (v. 11)
- Turn mourning into gladness (v.13)
- Give comfort and joy instead of sorrow (v. 13)
- Satisfy (v. 14)
- Fill (v. 14)
- Reward (v. 16)
- Discipline (v. 18)
- Restore (v. 18)
- Delight in His children (v. 20)
- Remember (v.20)
- Yearn (v. 20)
- Have great compassion (v. 20)
- Refresh (v. 25)
- Plant (v. 27)
- Write on our hearts (v. 33)
- Forgive (v. 34)
Our role:
- be rebuilt (v.4)
- go out to dance with the joyful (v.4)
- weep (v. 9)
- pray (v. 9)
- hear the Word of the Lord (v. 10)
- be His flock (v. 10)
- shout for joy (v. 12)
- rejoice in the bounty of the Lord (v. 12)
- dance and be glad (v. 13)
- be filled with His bounty (v. 14)
- repent (v. 19)
- understand (v. 19)
- be His people (v. 33)
- know Him (v. 34)
It's a deal, Lord! Your graciousness knows no end.

Wow! Once again you have given me ammunition/information/creative options for opening a staff meeting a CAM. They are VERY different from when Axel was in charge. More later on that...but I love what you come up with through the Bible reading. I also had been trying to figure out a way to remember the 10 plagues and the order! We were on the same wavelength for sure! I love you! Mom, at the River and loving it. We saw five deer grazing as the sun set, all purple and blue-grey streaking the sky!
