‏ Jeremiah 17:16

v. 16: Jeremiah appeals to God, saying he has stayed true to his calling. I have not hastened from being a pastor to follow thee; neither have I desired the woeful day. Although the people make his job hard, he has not run away or wished for their destruction. He has spoken God’s message faithfully, even when it was unpopular.
