Isaiah 29:1-9 Emptiness


"As when a hungry man dreams he is eating and awakens with an empty stomach, Or when a thirsty man dreams he is drinking and awakens faint, his throat parched, So shall the horde of all the nations be, who make war against Mount Zion."  ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭29:8‬

Isaiah 29:1-9  Emptiness.  Thou hast made us for thyself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it finds its rest in thee.  Saint Augustine of Hippo.  Emptiness Rebellion, we can rebell against the Lord, not heed His voice and turn our back on Truth.  Our hearts yearn for the Truth and is only satisfied when we receive it, especially physically.  The Lord speaks to
us as we sleep, the dreams of being satisfied are there to remind us what we are missing when we awake to the reality of emptiness, of the choices that we are making to ignore Truth.  

There is nothing better than being satisfied by the Bread of Life and drink from the Living Waters of Jesus Christ at Mass.  

What is God saying to me:  Truth is not to be denied.  

Dear Father, there is such Joy in receiving You physically and being in Your presence, here, I am satisfied and nourished to go into the world and do Your will.  There is nothing lacking when we honor and worship You with all our heart, mind and soul.  Lord, I pray for our priests who are speaking truth and calling the faithful home, bless their words to impact hearts.  Thank You for Your blessed assurance as we enjoy the day You have given us.  I ask this in the name above every other name, Jesus Christ, Amen.  

Mary, Queen of Heaven, Pray for us. 
St Joesph, Pray for us.  




Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world.  1 John 4:4b
