Thoughts & Teachings

Isaiah 58:5-8


Is such the fast that I desire, a day for men to starve their bodies?

No, this is the fast I desire: to unlock the fetters of wickedness, and untie the cords of the yoke.  To let the oppressed go free; to break off every yoke.  It is to share your bread with the hungry, and to take the wretched poor into your home; when you see the naked, to clothe him, and not to ignore your own kin.  Then shall your light burst through like the dawn and your healing spring up quickly.
