Psalm 107:8-9

Social media is a virtual buffet of delectable foods and exotic drinks. But amidst the feast of images, true satisfaction comes from nourishing our souls with God’s love and grace. For He is the only One who can truly satisfy our deepest hunger and thirst. He is the only One who offers living water and the bread of life. Like parched wanderers in a desert, we often find ourselves longing for sustenance and guidance. And in His unfailing love, God provides. He satisfies our spiritual drought and leads us to green pastures. His faithfulness endures through trials and triumphs, a constant anchor in the shifting tides of life. And never does He withhold any good thing from us. Knowing all God provides, how can we not have tongues that give thanks for His boundless love! How can we not have hearts overflowing with gratitude, and lips that sing songs of praise! And how can we not in our joy, declare the goodness of our God to all who will hear! For His steadfast love is offered freely. And in His faithfulness, we find refuge and strength, now and forevermore.

April 7th – Isaiah 6:8

Isaiah 6:8

Have you ever thought you washed a window to crystal clear perfection only to find it full of streaks when the rays of the sun shined on it? That’s how it is with us. No matter how hard we try, or how clean we think our lives are, they are nothing more than dirty, streaky, windows compared to the perfect goodness of God. But because of His boundless love, just like He did for Isaiah, God provides a way for our sin to be taken away and forgiven. That way is Jesus Christ. Through His work on the Cross and the shedding of His precious blood, the minute we receive Him as our Savior, the Holy Spirit goes to work. First he humbles and convicts us about the filthiness of our lives. Then He begins transforming, cleansing, and getting us ready for God’s service. No longer unworthy, and like the prophets before us, we can be eagerly obedient to God’s calling. And after our own life changing encounter with the Lord, with a thankful heart we too can say to God, “Here am I. send Me!”
