Matthew 13:29 “No,” he answered, “because while you are pulling up the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them.”

How many bad neighbours do you know? Does that stop people from living in the area?

Most of us will know someone who does not fit in to the community in some way, but that does not stop the community from thriving in its own ways.

God wants us to care for all people so when the time comes, the bad people cannot say “we didn’t know!”

Jeremiah 30:22 “So you will be my people, and I will be your God.”

Jeremiah was given the unenviable task of telling the people they would face hardships, but also how they would come out safe in the end.

We live in a terrible world where so many bad things happen – our actions do cause much of the problems.

God God is willing and able to give hope, love, mercy and peace to all who wait on Him!

Jeremiah 30:11 I am with you and will save you,” declares the Lord. “Though I completely destroy all the nations among which I scatter you, I will not completely destroy you. I will discipline you but only in due measure; I will not let you go entirely unpunished.”

Don’t get God mad at you! He is Holy and He is just. He will always do what is right!

If you go against God, don’t expect Him to come and support you in your wrong-doings.

Keep close to God and obey Him – that is the safest place to be!

Psalm 78:25 Human beings ate the bread of angels; he sent them all the food they could eat.

Even though God was angry at the people of Israel in the desert, He continued to supply their needs.

Why? Because He had promised Moses He would look after the people – God keeps His promises.

Why didn’t He just punish them? Because He is full of grace and mercy!
