Responding to Isaiah ch. 55.
Haiku of welcome
Hey, thirsty people,
here's water in abundance;
don't wait, come and drink!
No money? No probs;
come and eat, drink wine and milk,
no need for money!
You spend your money
and waste your labour on things
that can't satisfy,
Listen carefully,
eat what is good, take delight
in food that gives life.
God's offering you
a covenant that's lasting;
if you'll receive it.
It's there, before you;
seek the Lord while he is near,
turn from wicked ways.
God's invitation:
turn back, the Lord is waiting
to show his mercy.
God is not like us.
God's ways are higher than ours,
willing to pardon.
