Scripture: Jeremiah 1:4-10 NRSVUE
We live in a culture that urges us to build our own brand—to perform and project an image that wins recognition. Yet this constant performance leaves us exhausted and empty. Modern branding taps into our longing for connection and meaning, but what it offers is shallow compared to the grace of God, who knew and loved us before we ever achieved anything. In Jeremiah, we see that God calls and equips imperfect people—not because of merit, but because His purposes are already accomplished through Jesus. As Christ's ambassadors, we are invited to lay down the pursuit of being "enough" and instead embody His love, resting in the truth that through Him, we already are.
