Summary: Jeremiah 1:1-10
When God called Jeremiah, he was hesitant because of his young age. When Jeremiah brought his hesitations and fears before God, God reminded Jeremiah that He knew Jeremiah fully and would equip him for the call.
What Does This Say about God?
God knows His people! He sees our hearts and His ability to use us even when we can’t see it for ourselves. While we look for worldly skills and strength, God is looking at the heart. He is ready to equip us to serve as we come to Him.
