Journey to Stability

Jeremiah 31:1-6

¹ At that time, declares the LORD, I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be my people. ² The LORD proclaims: The people who survived the sword found grace in the wilderness. As Israel searched for a place of rest, ³ the LORD appeared to them from a distance: I have loved you with a love that lasts forever. And so with unfailing love, I have drawn you to myself. ⁴ Again, I will build you up, and you will be rebuilt, virgin Israel. Again, you will play your tambourines and dance with joy. ⁵ Again, you will plant vineyards on the hills of Samaria; farmers will plant and then enjoy the harvests. ⁶ The time will come when the watchmen shout from the highlands of Ephraim: “Get ready! We’re going up to Zion to the LORD our God!”
