Jeremiah 20

Written By Lexie Miller

Adult Pastor Ron King continues our series on Jeremiah.

What do you do when the call of God grows painful? When you said yes to following Jesus, but it cost you more than you expected?

Jeremiah knew that place. He was a prophet who wept, raged, and prayed prayers with no amen. And he was a man who kept going despite the pain.

If you've ever wondered if faithfulness is worth it. Or, if you've been sitting with a quiet fear that God's purpose for your life is smaller than you hoped — or harder than you signed up for. Remember: God knew you before you were born. He called you by name. And His purpose for your life is bigger than you are currently imagining.

The question Jeremiah forces us to ask is simple. When the drop off a waterfall comes — and it will — will you still trust the One holding the oar?
