"Why do you spend money for what
is not bread, And your wages for what
does not satisfy?"
(Isaiah 55:2 NASB)
The joys and satisfaction of spending is very brief.
It may give you a house full of "stuff". But you
will not be satisfied with it. Things do not fulfill
life and you will be spending again tomorrow trying
to be happy. But it will not work.
It was God himself who made the comment through
the prophet Isaiah. He goes on to say:
"Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good,
And delight yourself in abundance.
Incline your ear and come to Me.
Listen, that you may live;"
(isaiah 55:2b, 3 NASB)
Our satisfaction needs to start with listening to
and paying attention to God's instructions. That
will be the only way we will get true satisfaction
in life.
