Ho! Every one who thirsts, come to the waters;
And You who have no money come, buy and eat.
Come buy wine and milk
Without money without cost.
Why do you spend money for what is not bread,
And your wages for what does not satisfy?
Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good,
And delight yourself in abundance.
Incline your ear and come to Me.
Listen, that you may live;
And I will make an everlasting covenant with you….
Isaiah 55:1-3
God says we do not need to use brute force to muscle our way through life. There is a better way, His way. Satisfaction does not come from accumulating great piles of things. Satisfaction comes from knowing God, and the free gift of God, His Son – Jesus.
Spending money on things to make us happy is only a temporary fix. Things break, rust, and expire, but the love and mercy of God is forever.
Stop spending. Start Living. Get to know Jesus.
