Is Anyone Thirsty?

"Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near."  (Isaiah 55:6)
Scripture Focus: Isaiah 55

Isaiah 55 is a passage full of invitation and encouragement to come, listen and seek. The human body knows hunger and thirst; we all need food and drink to survive. However, this is an invitation to eat and drink for free and in so doing find sustenance that is good - forever - for the soul. The New Living Translation starkly warns, "Listen, for the life of your soul is at stake" (vs. 3). If we heed the warning and respond to the invitation, then the LORD establishes His everlasting covenant with us: we will receive mercy, pardon and His unfailing love.

In verse 6 we are urged to seek the LORD while we can find Him and to call on Him while He is near. Don't miss the opportunity to seek and find restoration for your soul through Jesus. Perhaps your greatest need comes because you have never asked for the forgiveness of your sins. Do that today, while there is still time. Or maybe your soul is just tired and weary from the journey. Then turn to Him, the Good Shepherd, the Restorer of your soul.

Insight: Restoration For The Soul Is Available To The Thirsty, Weak, Broken, Needy, Crushed, Battered And Bruised. Seek The Lord, And Call On Him Now.
