Will Not Satisfy

How many times have you looked to find something to satisfy you?  Maybe a job, a new community, even finding a wife.... only to decide that it doesn't satisfy.  Sadly we look for other things. 

Have you every given thought to the fact that God is trying to get us to find our satisfition in Him.  God tells us that He place a "hedge" around her in order to get her to return to her husband.

Hos 2:6-7 6 "Therefore, behold, I will hedge up her way with thorns, And I will build a wall against her so that she cannot find her paths. 7 "She will pursue her lovers, but she will not overtake them; And she will seek them, but will not find them. Then she will say, 'I will go back to my first husband,  For it was better for me then than now!'  NASU

God calls us through Isaiah to come to HIM!  HE provides the things that satisfy.

Isa 55:1-3  55 "Ho! Every one who thirsts, come to the waters; And you who have no money come, buy and eat.  Come, buy wine and milk Without money and without cost. 2 "Why do you spend money for what is not bread, And your wages for what does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good, And delight yourself in abundance.  3 "Incline your ear and come to Me. Listen, that you may live; And I will make an everlasting covenant with you, According to the faithful mercies shown to David.
