Isaiah 54-55
55 “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.
In this election year this sounds like the ultimate socialist campaign message, right up Bernie's alley. lol.
But seriously, God does give us the ultimate gift of eternal life for free. There is a huge cost, the ultimate in human cost. But as we learn later in the human timeline Jesus covered that cost for us. In God's timeline all was already known even as these words were documented hundreds of years before humans would observe Jesus paying our debt for us.
Our timing is good to be going through Isaiah now as Easter nears.

8-11 “I don’t think the way you think.
ReplyDeleteThe way you work isn’t the way I work.”
This verse caught my attention. Probably because lately I'm being trained as to how your reality can look very different depending on your perspective and experience. I want this verse to describe me as I relate to the world. I don't want to think like others. I want to have God's perspective and reality. But, its hard to hold that for long. I have times when I'm good....and then I realize I've been completely self-motivated and self-serving again! frustrating. But, this short verse is and encouragement to me today to live in his view and in his perspective.
