Ever notice how many different ways there are to water a garden? Like, how some people just drown their plants with this downpour from the hose, and some people try to recreate the Amazonian rainforest by showering the whole garden with a spray. However you do it, everyone agrees that the garden needs watering--and so does God?
Isaiah 58:9-11 (New Living Translation)
9 Then when you call, the LORD will answer.
'Yes, I am here,' he will quickly reply.
"Remove the heavy yoke of oppression.
Stop pointing your finger and spreading vicious rumors!
10 Feed the hungry,
and help those in trouble.
Then your light will shine out from the darkness,
and the darkness around you will be as bright as noon.
11 The LORD will guide you continually,
giving you water when you are dry
and restoring your strength.
You will be like a well-watered garden,
like an ever-flowing spring."
Want to be a well-watered garden? Help people who are in trouble. Feed the hungry. Fight oppression. Do God's work, and light the world!
