this narrow path

jeremiah 3

⁵ will you always be angry? Will your wrath continue forever?' This is how you talk, but you do all the evil you can.”


--there's so much truth to this. we love evil. we love committing sin. and we do all that we can, even when we know that God is watching over us and know that He is not pleased with what He is seeing in our hearts. these desires stir within us and lead to unfaithfulness, which is what God is trying to render with the people of Judah and Israel. He is trying to pull HIs people back to worshiping Him after repenting of their sins. verse 22 reveals God's compassion as He promises them that He will cure them. with that, they surrender to HIm and tell Him that they will come.
