Old Testament and New, God offers us food for life's journey.
According to Dr. Albright, there is only one requirement for receiving this soul food...
You have to be hungry for the journey with Christ.
And I wonder... Are you hungry for Him? am I?
Whatever we hunger for we pursue in an effort to satisfy the ache.
Do you find satisfaction in what you hungrily pursue?
"Come, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters;
and he who has no money, come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread,
and your labor for that which does not satisfy?
Listen diligently to me, and eat what is good,
and delight yourselves in rich food.
Incline your ear, and come to me;
hear that your soul may live...
Isaiah 55:1-3 ESV
What God offers through Jesus guarantees satisfaction, fulfillment, delight. All at no cost. You just have to be hungry for Him.
Consider whether you are satisfied with what you indulge in daily.
If you find it lacking, remember there is something better.
Someone better. Guaranteed to be good.
Taste and see that the Lord is good;
blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
Psalm 34:8 NIV84
Don't waste your money, time, or energy on anything less than the Best.
The Bread of Life.
Satisfying soul food.
