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
