Today: [Jeremiah 2] Cisterns that Hold No Water: In chapter 2 of Jeremiah the prophet cries out to a nation that considers itself right before God but is in reality, standing in the shadow of its own destruction because it has forsaken Him. The people Jeremiah speaks to are so convinced of their self-worth that it takes very strong language on the prophet’s part to convince them they have put their trust in a system (or cistern) that can hold no water (or promise) for them.
