"Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread,
and your labor for that which does not satisfy?' Isaiah 55:2 (NRSV)
The world chases after money, possessions, pleasure, status, fame, power, success.....
These things do not satisfy.
"Ho, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters,
and you that have no money, come buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk,
without money and without price." Isaiah 55:1 (NRSV)
What is this mysterious water?
What is this intoxicating wine?
What is this nourishing milk?
What is this life-giving bread?
It is Love.
Only love will satisfy the soul.
