Manic Monday?

In this passage, God gives a command and makes a wonderful promise.

Come, all you who are thirsty,
come to the waters;
and you who have no money,
come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk,
without money and without cost.
Why spend money on what is not bread,
and your labour on what does not satisfy?
Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good,
and you will delight in the richest of fare.

Isaiah 55:1-2

God says: “Come—there is free food.” There are two highlights about this promise of a banquet: it is free and it truly satisfies. The invitation is wide open.

• Think for a moment about the things to which people look for satisfaction and fulfilment. They give little and short-lived satisfaction, yet people can spend their lives and wealth pursuing them.
• Where are you looking for satisfaction? Take this invitation to heart. Come to God now for satisfaction and fulfilment.
