4/29/09 Isaiah 55:1-5)

SCRIPTURE:
(Please share the verse(s) which speak to you)
Why do you spend money for what is not bread, and your wages for what does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eats what is good, and delight yourself in abundance. (Isaiah 55:3 NAS)
OBSERVATION:
These questions get to the core of human nature. Immediate needs (or wants) often cloud the judgment.
APPLICATION
Even though these questions are thousands of years old, they are still relevant today. Why is good money spent on that which does not fully sustain or delight?
Perhaps we think we can solve our problems (or meet our needs) by ourselves. But that is not what God wants. God wants us to know we are cared for and loved if we would just sit down, relax and live in Divine Love.
PRAYER:
Lord forgive me for the speed at which I lead my life. Forgive me for chasing a dollar that satisfies for just a moment and missing your love that last for a life time.
YES:
I will seek that love that sustains for ever.
