Evening: Psalm 68:1-38; Matthew 4:12-17
Matthew, along with a few others, quotes Isaiah’s famous phrase: “The people who sat / walked in darkness have seen a great light.” Jesus calls for profound change … like night and day. He uses the same word his cousin John the Baptist used, Repent! This radical transformation, if you respond to Jesus’ call, it changes the direction in which you look for happiness. You may not be finding satisfaction and fulfilment where you are looking now. So change direction, Jesus says, turn around. People say, “I turned my life around”; that’s what it means to repent.
