Scripture Lesson: Jeremiah 29:10-14
10 For thus saith the LORD, That after seventy years be
accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good
word toward you, in causing you to return to this place. 11 For
I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD,
thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
12 Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto
me, and I will hearken unto you. 13 And ye shall seek me, and
find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. 14 And
I will be found of you, saith the LORD: and I will turn away your
captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all
the places whither I have driven you, saith the LORD; and I will
bring you again into the place whence I caused you to be carried
away captive.
