Who does the lord think we are?” they ask.
“Why does he speak to us like this?
Are we little children,
just recently weaned?
10He tells us everything over and over—
The coming destruction can never touch us,
for we have built a strong refuge made of lies and deception.”
The lord of Heaven’s Armies is a wonderful teacher,
and he gives the farmer great wisdom.
Does a jar ever say,
“The potter who made me is stupid”?
Because you despise what I tell you
and trust instead in oppression and lies,
13calamity will come upon you suddenly—
like a bulging wall that bursts and falls.
Oh Lord my God,
How do I understand you, how do I let go of my way, my stubborn way. You made me with unique gifts, does that make me better than others? Lord God, remove my will and make me wise in your way for me and be my guide in my thoughts.
In Jesus name,
Amen
