God's Offer of Mercy

The LORD says,

"Come, everyone who is thirsty - here is water!

Come, you that have no money - Buy grain and eat!

Come! Buy wine and milk - It will cost you nothing!

Why spend money on what does not satisfy?

Why spend your wages and still be hungry?

Listen to me and do what I say,

and you will enjoy the best food of all."

"Listen now, my people, and come to me;

come to me, and you will have life!

I will make a lasting covenant with you

and give you the blessings I promised to David.

I made him a leader and commander of nations,

and through him I showed them my power."

Isaiah 55:1-4
