There’s realism in the ministry of Jeremiah. He prophesies the
Babylonian captivity. There is also hope. He looks beyond the Babylonian
captivity: “They will be taken to Babylon and stay there.I come for
them, declares the Lord. I will take them from there and bring them back
to this place” (Jeremiah 27:22). The way we are led may not be easy.
The destination will be glorious. When things are going badly, we must
never lose sight of the final goal of God’s working in us and through
us. Beyond the suffering, there is the glory.
