BIG PICTURE
Isaiah 55:1-9 (10-13)
Self-focused living
the hunger for possessions,
the thirst for status.
Buy now, pay later,
fast fashion, shiny gadget:
brief satisfaction.
The bigger picture
a vision beyond today
money cannot buy.
A binding promise,
love with cosmic dimensions,
God of mystery.
Rain, sun, seed, sower,
all creation celebrates
free, abundant life.
