「Though you grind a fool in a mortar with a pestle

　along with crushed grain,

　Yet his foolishness will not depart from him.」　Amen.

We say, “A fool cannot be cured unless he dies,” and in this passage, too, he says he cannot be cured. Jeremiah, as “a very lowly fool indeed,” said (Jeremiah 5:3) “O Lord, are not Your eyes on the truth? You have stricken them,But they have not grieved;You have consumed them,But they have refused to receive correction.They have made their faces harder than rock;They have refused to return. ” We want to be loved by both God and man.

　May we spend today in the love of the Lord....

God bless you.   See you tomorrow.
