Jer 16:2 Thou shalt not take thee a wife, neither shalt thou have sons or daughters in this place.
There are some things that we just won’t be able to have in our Christian life, no matter how much we want them. And there may be a myriad of reasons for which we cannot have them. For Jeremiah, the Lord told him he would never have a wife or children.
Jeremiah had two options:
-Accept that it was the Lord’s will for him to be single, and realize that it’s better for him this way
-Pout and moan about how much he wanted a family/go and get married anyway, and thus suffer the consequences.
Jer 17:9 Engañoso es el corazón más que todas las cosas, y perverso; ¿quién lo conocerá?
A veces, nos gusta pensar que somos inteligentes, justos y que sabemos lo que sea correcto en nuestras vidas. Pero la Biblia dice que la verdad es que no podemos entender nuestros propios corazones!
Cuando tenemos que decidir en algo, no debemos seguir lo que queremos, pero debemos buscar la voluntad de Dios.
--Pray for Spain. Pray that the Lord would raise up missionaries and native Spaniards to take the gospel to the millions of lost souls in Spain.--
