was looking through my blog entries.. realised that its been some time since i shared my revelations.. haha.. so i shall now share something that i read the other day.. though i may not really understand, but maybe you can enlighten me..

It's taken from Jer 26: 20-24... it was talking abt a man, Urijah who prophesied against the city as Jeremiah, but in the end, he suffered a different fate from Jeremiah.. n i really wondered why? then i saw in verse 21 => it said, When Urijah heard it(that the king is after him), he was AFRAID and fled... However, for Jeremiah's case, after he prophesied against the city, he didnt fled as Urijah did, instead he stayed on to speak to the ppl, saying that the Lord had sent him wiht the word for them(Vs 15).. in the end, Urijah was put to death while Jeremiah wasn't..

Is that the reason why they had a different end? Jeremiah persisted and trusted in God till the very end, never giving up, never losing focus of his calling, his purpose.. however, Urijah's fear overtook him n he fled from where God placed him to speak to the ppl..

so was that what made the difference? i have no idea, but thats my understanding.. maybe u can enlighten me.. haha..
