Jeremiah 40-42

It took me about 7 minutes to read this passage. In the centuries that have passed since Jeremiah's time we people have not changed. We tell God that we will obey him, but we give him conditions to which he must adhere, and limit the options in which he can work. Is it any wonder that we end up fighting God? Everytime that I put forth my plans and my ideas as being the best course of action I am soon faced with the truth that my ideas and plans are flawed. God always has a better plan. That doesn't mean I shouldn't plan anything at all. Rather it means I should always prayerfully offer my ideas to God and be ready to adjust my plans to meet his expectations.
