Rational Ruminations: Jeremiah Volume 01 - Paperback

by Michael Detweiler (Author)

This culmination of daily scriptural rumination's was born out of a place of deep pain and great hope.

What started as a simple pre-dawn sharing of scriptural encouragement with my two brothers (following the loss of my 24 year old son, and my older brother's wife in the late fall of 2018) turned into a daily blessing to help us understand the tragedies that took place. I started to share these with my children, then a close brother in Christ who also lost his 23 year old son three months after Michael, another young dad needing encouragement and slowly it grew into what it is today reaching many friends and friends of friends in need of encouragement.

After more than five years of writing daily "rumination's" and texting them out, one copy, one paste, and one send, at time, you now hold a portion of this labor of love in your hands.

May these "Rational Rumination's" bless and enrich your walk with Christ as much as they have enriched and blessed my walk with Him in writing them.

The decision to begin this series in Jeremiah was no coincidence. Jeremiah's message, though often delivered in times of great hardship and uncertainty, is one of hope, renewal, and God's unwavering faithfulness. For a project inspired by personal loss and a longing for encouragement, Jeremiah's steadfast reliance on God in the face of adversity mirrors the heart of these writings. It is my prayer that this starting point provides a firm foundation for finding peace, purpose, and God's promises in the midst of life's challenges.
