Jeremiah
"The way of man is not in himself"
Text: Jeremiah 10:23
THE WAY OF MAN
Man has always believed in himself. He promotes himself in many ways. Jeremiah begs to differ. From what he could see all around him, the way of man is not in himself!
“O LORD, I know the way of man is not in himself;
It is not in man who walks to direct his own steps.
O LORD, correct me, but with justice;
Not in Your anger, lest You bring me to nothing.
Pour out Your fury on the Gentiles, who do not know You,
And on the families who do not call on Your name;
For they have eaten up Jacob,
Devoured him and consumed him,
And made his dwelling place desolate.”
Jeremiah 10:23-25
