"... So the captain of the guard gave him an allowance of food and a present, and let him go." -- Jeremiah 40:5
Take a moment and place this occasion alongside Romans 8:28, "And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose." This moment in the life of Jeremiah gives insight to the words "all things". While the army of Babylon moves at God's command for disaster, Nebuzaradan is directed to free Jeremiah and bless him with food and a present.
The Lord worked all things together to accomplish His great purpose and yet bless His servant. In the very midst of sorrowful days, God was carefully and specifically protecting and providing for Jeremiah. Our Lord controls the little things as well as the big things for our good. Just trust Him my friend and your needs will be met, with a present beside!
