Isaiah 55:8-9

My mom used to sing a song to us kids when we were little that went, "You can't always get what you want..." This is so true, but the second part of the songs is, "and if you try sometime, you find you get what you need." I think this song pretty much sums up what the Lord is telling us in Isaiah 55:8-9. We don't always get what we want, be HE knows what we need. We hold on to this hope that God is control and He knows exactly what is best for us.
