Isaiah 55 - Time


"All you who are thirsty, come to the water! You who have no money, come, buy grain and eat; Come, buy grain without money, wine and milk without cost! Why spend your money for what is not bread; your wages for what does not satisfy? Only listen to me, and you shall eat well, you shall delight in rich fare. Pay attention and come to me; listen, that you may have life. I will make with you an everlasting covenant, the steadfast loyalty promised to David."  ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭55:1-3‬

Isaiah 55 - Time.  Why spend money for what is not bread or another way why spend time for what is not bread?  God cares for you!  He cares for your well being, for your future, for your soul and the one thing that we can give Him is time, it is the wage He gives us.  When we sit and listen, our thoughts are not His, our ways are not His, He knows everything.  I have learned to give God time and in return, I am well cared for.  I have learned to listen, my lamp has plenty of oil, my Spirit is fed and my thoughts, over time become His.  But He warns us: "Seek the LORD while he may be found, call upon him while he is near."  ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭55:6‬  "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, [then] I will enter his house and dine with him, and he with me."  Revelation‬ ‭3:20‬  Jesus is knocking answer Him with your time.  

What is God saying to me: Time with me is wisely spent, a fool squanders his wages on frivolous things that does not bring about peace.  

Dear Father, even though my morning wasn't usual it was good being with You as we talk with each other.  You know my concerns and the images You paint in my spirit, I will continue to be obedient to Your will and follow where we are going.  Prayers for those not living in Peace, not living within the confines of Your heart.  Bless this day Father, bless our time with You this day and help us always be by Your side.  I ask this through Jesus Christ, Amen.  

Mary, Our Lady of Good Counsel, Pray for us. 
St Joesph, Most Chaste, Pray for us.
