I gave you empty stomachs in every city
and lack of bread in every town,
yet you have not returned to me,
declares the Lord.
Footnote:
No matter how God warned the people -- through famine, drought, blight, locusts, plagues, or war -- they still ignored him. Because the Israelites didn't get the message, they would have to meet God face to face in judgment. No longer would they ignore God; they would have to face the One they had rejected, the One they had refused to obey when he commanded them to care for the poor. One day each of us will meet God face to face to account for what we have done or refused to do. Are you prepared to meet him?
