Jeremiah 15:16

As your words came to me I drank them in, and they filled my heart with joy and happiness because I belong to you, O Lord, the God who rules over all.

When the fishermen were called by Jesus, they followed Him. When Samuel was called by the Lord, he answered at the instruction of Eli. When Paul encountered Christ on the Damascus Road, he fell on his face, and His life changed forever. Here we have Jeremiah, referencing the moment when the Lord's "words" came to him. The words used to describe how Jeremiah feels about the Lord's words are delight, joy, and rejoicing. Jeremiah knows that his worth is in God alone - and so must we. Biblical self-worth can generate a spring of life that beautifully articulates the gospel.
