“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations. Then I said, ‘Ah, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, for I am only a youth.’ But the Lord said to me, ‘Do not say, “I am only a youth”; for to all to whom I send you shall go, and whatever I command you shall speak. Be not afraid of them, for I am with you to deliver you, says the Lord. ... They will fight against you; but they shall not prevail against you, for I am with you, says the Lord, to deliver you.’” (Jeremiah 1:5-8; 19) Have you ever had the feeling that what you were doing was just wasting time, that you were serving no greater purpose? Yet, somewhere deep inside, despite what everybody else said, you just knew what you were doing was right?
