Will you come..

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.~Isaiah 55:1

It cost us nothing to come to God.  It cost us nothing to eat of the bread and drink of the water that fulfills every longing and craving.  Freely, He offers us food that will strengthen us and drink that will restore us.  He stands and knocks at the door waiting for us to open the door so that He may dine with us ( Revelation 3:20).  

Do we get that?  Do we understand that He is calling us to Himself?  He is calling us to come and eat and drink freely from Him and to fellowship with Him.  He invites us to meal that He prepares and paid for. We don’t need to do anything but come.

You can come and find mercy. You can come and freely be pardoned for your sins( Isaiah 55:7).  Those who are weary and burdened can come and find rest ( Matthew 11:28). You don’t have to spend your money and waste your time on those things that only patch up your pain without ever healing.  You don’t have to go to search for those things that are temporary and will never fill the longings in your heart or bring real peace to your mind.  But you can look up.

The Lord is near and He can be found.  You can call on Him. ( Isaiah 55:6).  There is nothing too hard for God.  The word that He has placed on your life will come to pass.  His Word never comes back void ( Isaiah 55:10-11).  So you can trust Him.  You can trust that He has a word for every situation and circumstance.  So come, eat, and taste the goodness of the Lord. He stands at the door, knocking, and calling.  You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Father may we come to You.  May we trust You.  May we open our hearts to You and be filled.  In Jesus name. Amen
