In my backyard I have a tree which is well established. Most likely this tree is more than 60 years young. Since it is well established, it gives out a good shade. I also got a tree house built around/on it. And my grandkids enjoy it.
But what if a strong wind or a strong earthquake hits it, so it gets uprooted? Well, it is just a tree, so you can come back, and get the tree sawed off, and perhaps use it as firewood.
What about man? Obviously man is far more valuable than tree. So much will also be the consequences of a man who either gets fully established or totally uprooted. And no one may want to be uprooted.
Question becomes: "How is a man established or uprooted? If uprooted, why is he?" Beginning today the UBF daily bread (daily devotion in QT) comes from the book of Jeremiah where you can find the answer to the question.
In the ope that you get the most out of the book of Jeremiah in regard to this important question of life, I chose to share with you a brief lecture on the book of Jeremiah (which I had shared at one of the young missionaries' meetings at Downey UBF.)

God bless.
