Jeremiah 14:7-9, 17-22 The drought came to God's people because of their many sins but God's eyes were filled with tears. He is a God of understanding but firm for his people decided to believe false prophets that were not appointed by God. The Lord is a God of lessons. He wants us to learn the best possible way so we don't face drought or calamity twice. Jesus was a teacher but He was also God in the flesh who can to teach us so we don't suffer as our ancestors did or the people of Israel. He teaches us to wait, not the right decision or just something better is coming.
