 He was asked to deliver a harsh message. But instead of being harsh as he delivered it, something we might be, Jeremiah's tender heart communicated compassion. The message he delivered broke his own heart. And frankly, he cried a lot. You know, God intentionally chose a man with a tender, compassionate heart to deliver a strong and dangerous message. Just think about that. Jeremiah represented the tenderness of God, even when delivering a message of judgment. It's a beautiful picture of God's mercy.
