career change

IMG_1248Jeremiah 1:1-10

Jeremiah was just adjusting to his life as a priest when the LORD informed him that he was going to be a prophet.  He was reluctant to take on the new role.  Prophets had to be bold and decisive.  They could not melt into the background, and just do their duties.  Prophets made important people angry.  It was not a strategic career choice.  It would lead to hardship, rejection, and danger.  Yet, it was his destiny.  We should never be afraid of taking the less travelled path when it is the LORD leading us.  He knows where we need to go.

LORD, we surrender our plans and expectations to your sovereignty.
