Title: Remember the Wrath of God
Scripture: Lamentations 2
Description: Lamentations 2 is a poem of desperation, as the author gives voice to the anguish and desperation that the people of Israel felt when Jerusalem was destroyed by Babylon in 587 BC. It serves as a sobering memorial to God's wrath, God's justice, and God's faithfulness to do what He said He would do. Where can we find hope in this suffocating judgment?
