Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost. Isaiah 55:1 (cf. Mark 10:13-31)
“If you’re interested in God doing a work in you like He promises to do to Israel [in Isaiah 55], you need to meet two requirements:
(1) You need to be thirsty, and (2) You need to be broke.
God’s invitation doesn’t go to those who think God would be lucky to have them. It goes to people who are needy and have nothing to offer God.
You may have come here this morning reluctantly because you don’t think you really have anything to offer to God. You are just the person He’s looking for.”
