A Million Times Over

These scriptures struck me this morning:

"I remember concerning you the devotion of your youth, the love of your betrothals, your following after me in the wilderness, through a land not sown." Jeremiah 2:2

"What injustice did your fathers find in Me, that they went far from Me & walked after emptiness & became empty?" Jeremiah 2:5

"For My people have committed two evils: they have forsaken Me, the Fountain of living waters, to hew for themselves cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water." Jeremiah 2:13

God is more forgotten than likely to forget.
He asks why, abandoned.
A million times over more ache than wrath.
