Come, All You Who Are Thirsty

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 labor on what does not satisfy?
Listen, listen to me and eat what is good,
and your soul will delight in the richest of fare.
Give ear and come to me;
hear me that your soul may live.
Isaiah 55:1-3a

Remember how the prodigal son went out in to the world? He spent all of his inheritance on things that didn't satisfy him. He tried everything until he ran out of money. Remember in the book of Ecclesiastes, Solomon tried everything under the sun. He said it was all vanity. He and the prodigal came to the same conclusion. Return to the Father. In the Father we are satisfied. In the Father our needs are truly met. He promises that in him we can have complete joy. God is calling us to be truly dependent on him for everything. He will feed us. He will protect us. He will cause our souls to truly live. It is mystical, but true. Seek God. Declare these things to be true. He is what you have been looking for. You are truly complete in him.
