Why spend money on what is not bread?

Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Isaiah 55:2

We all run after things bigger, better, designer wear, gourmet meal, exotic vacations - but do these ever satisfy us? Sadly, never! We are only broke and exhausted at the end of the day.

There is however one thing that is truly satisfying - which is the joy of His salvation; and the only source it comes from is our Lord Jesus Christ! Amen!

There are multiple Scriptures on those lines...

I (Jesus) am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. John 6:51

Taste and see that the LORD is good Psalm 34:8

Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. John 6:27

On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine - the best of meats and the finest of wines. Isaiah 25:6

Now, have you tasted Him? Today?

A good one! It reminds me of one of my JoAnne sayings, "If I can't eat it or drink it, I don't like buying it." That includes cleaning supplies, bathroom stationary, and all round general expenses of day to day living.

I have always been a big bread eater, now I have to cut back. Yet the bread of life, that comes from my God, I need a steady diet of.
