But I am sure that there are adults out there that ask the same question. Have you ever been to a symphony? You go into the auditorium and you grab a ...read more

    Jeremiah (like us) was told to speak God's message to the Israelites. He got a cold reception. He decided he wouldn't speak any more, but God's Word, bottled up inside, became like fire in his bones! My Question is: Do YOU have fire in your bones?
