In Jeremiah 1, God calls and equips Jeremiah for an extremely difficult mission of warning Israel of coming destruction. He doubts his ability to carry this out, but God gives him the assurance he needs and equips him with God's power and protection. He becomes a radically faithful prophet for God even in the midst of physical dangers and a wickedly evil nation. He trusts God. God will watch over His Word and fulfill it and will protect Jeremiah. Jeremiah chooses the cross over conforming to the crowd and faithfully walks forward with God.
