Alarm

Re: Verse reading – Jeremiah 18:1-17; 19:1-20:6 (Day Three) 
“Does the snow of Lebanon
ever vanish from its rocky slopes?”  When streams dry up, life suffers.  What is true of the physical realm is true first of the spiritual realm—not because the physical realm is merely an inferior copy of the spiritual realm.  It isn’t.  But before the material universe came to be, God existed.  He created the universe—everything that is—to function in a certain way—and only in that way.  When streams dry up, people become alarmed, because they know the hardship that’s coming.  Their physical well being is in danger.  What is true of the physical is true first of the spiritual.  Has righteousness ceased to flow in our lives?  Should we be concerned?
