We all have a desire for a sense of fulfillment in our lives. We may seek fulfillment through work or different causes but these things are unfulfilling. The key to fulfillment is to seek our happiness in God alone. Isaiah, in this passage, cries to the people to come and be satisfied in the Messiah. He tells them to stop looking for fulfillment in things that won’t satisfy because this only brings discontentment. When you feel unsatisfied, what do you turn to? Satisfaction will only come from Christ. We have no reason to continue to cling to our idolatry. Refuse your habitual patterns to find satisfaction and come to Christ. Be intentional in seeking the Lord and set the highest value on Him. Continue to realize your deepest need because when we see that we are insufficient in ourselves, this draws us to God. Forsake your own ways and return to the Lord, and He will abundantly pardon. Seeking the Lord is a whole life realignment. Forsake your thoughts that are against the Gospel and that lead to fear and bondage. Come to God’s grace and find rest for your soul! Reject yourself and allow a total reformation of your life--especially your thoughts. If you continue to hold on to your thoughts and ways, it shows that your expectations of God are small. God desires to show you how great He is and what He is able to do. Be willing to submit your plans to God. Don’t be fearful to go beyond what you don’t understand. God uses our regrets, insecurities, pain, and sufferings, to bring us to a sense of helplessness and impotency to draw us to Himself. There is a satisfaction that only comes from God. See your fulfillment in God’s work, plans, and ways.
