Serving The Carolinas Since 1931 "If it's Metal "If it's Metal...We Buy It We Buy It...Top Price!" Top Price!" Rev. Trent Rankin Salvation Church, Gastonia, NC salvationchurchnc.org Summer is an exciting time to be alive. It is a time of fun, vacations, and sunny days. However, summer can be an exhausting time as well. Here in North Carolina, our summer days are long, hot, and humid! These hot days can make us really tired. After a few hours out in the hot sun, we are ready for a nap. Life in general can make us tired these days. There is so much we go through each day that makes us tired, not just physically, but spiritually as well. In Jeremiah 20:7-12, we find the prophet Jeremiah exhausted. Jeremiah was a prophet of God to the people of Judah. Judah was lost in sin against God. They worshipped the idols of the peoples around them and rebelled against God continually. Jeremiah called the people to repentance, but they would not lis- ten. Jeremiah was often imprisoned and mocked for his words of God. Mean- while God was preparing to judge His people. They were surrounded by the Babylonian army, and soon they would fall and be taken into captivity. Jeremiah was surely tired. Often, we are tired as well. We live in an exhaust- ing time. Jeremiah faced many chal- lenges in his work for God. We face tremendous challenges too. Our daily life is dominated by COVID, political uncer- tainty, and economical challenges. Also, we are attempting to live for God when, like in Jeremiah's day, many people do not want to hear anything about God. In such a challenging time we get tired, we get exhausted, and many times, we may be ready to quit. Jeremiah was so tired of people threatening him, and mock- ing God, that he was ready to quit. It is natural to want to give up. It is much easier to quit. It would have been much easier for Jeremiah to stop prophesying for God. In Galatians 6:9 Paul writes, "And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up" (ESV). Jer- emiah knew that although his life was hard, and he was tired from the many challenges he faced, he served a power- ful, faithful God. It is easy to get tired from daily life, yet our God is greater than anything this world throws at us. Today, find some rest, not just physi- cally, but spiritually also. Seek God in prayer, and find refreshing, refocus, and a new drive to continue on. You may be tired, but you God never tires of walking with you! Rev. Trent Rankin I'm tired!
