With the Lord I have hope and future

Jeremiah 29:1-20
Jeremiah wrote letter to the exiles and to the priests, elders and all the other people Nebuchadnezzar had carried into exile from Jerusalem.
"Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then your will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you," declares by the Lord ," and will bring you back from captivity. I fill gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you."
"Do not let the prophets and diviners among you deceive you. DO not listen to the dreams you encourage them to have. They are prophesying lies to you in my name. I have not sent them."
Why?
The exile to whom Jeremiah writes are the captives deported with King Jehoiachin, among them Ezekiel.
The Lord has plan to rebuild his people from the captive who was exiled to Babylon.
When I seek the Lord with all my heart, I will seek the Lord.
How?
With the Lord I have hope and future, seek the Lord with all my heart, all my soul and all my strength.
