Jeremiah 1-3/John 15-16
Love Jesus?

OT – 1:4 The LORD gave me a message. He said,  “I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my spokesman to the world.”

 “O Sovereign LORD,” I said, “I can’t speak for you! I’m too young!”

 “Don’t say that,” the LORD replied, “for you must go wherever I send you and say whatever I tell you.  And don’t be afraid of the people, for I will be with you and take care of you. I, the LORD, have spoken!”
