Isaiah 55 An Invitation to Abundant Life 1 “Ho! Everyone who thirsts, Come to the waters; And you who have no money, Come, buy and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk Without money and without price. 2 Why do you spend money for what is not bread, And your wages for what does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good, And let your soul delight itself in abundance. 3 Incline your ear, and come to Me. Hear, and your soul shall live; And I will make an everlasting covenant with you— The sure mercies of David. 4 Indeed I have given him as a witness to the people, A leader and commander for the people. 5 Surely you shall call a nation you do not know, And nations who do not know you shall run to you, Because of the LORD your God, And the Holy One of Israel; For He has glorified you.” 6 Seek the LORD while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near. 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to the LORD, And He will have mercy on him; And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon. 8 “ For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the LORD. 9 “ For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts. 10 “ For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater, 11 So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. 12 “ For you shall go out with joy, And be led out with peace; The mountains and the hills Shall break forth into singing before you, And all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. 13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress tree, And instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree; And it shall be to the LORD for a name, For an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.”

Zechariah 5 Vision of the Flying Scroll 1 Then I turned and raised my eyes, and saw there a flying scroll. 2 And he said to me, “What do you see?” So I answered, “I see a flying scroll. Its length is twenty cubits and its width ten cubits.” 3 Then he said to me, “This is the curse that goes out over the face of the whole earth: ‘Every thief shall be expelled,’ according to this side of the scroll; and, ‘Every perjurer shall be expelled,’ according to that side of it.” 4 “ I will send out the curse,” says the LORD of hosts; “ It shall enter the house of the thief And the house of the one who swears falsely by My name. It shall remain in the midst of his house And consume it, with its timber and stones.” Vision of the Woman in a Basket 5 Then the angel who talked with me came out and said to me, “Lift your eyes now, and see what this is that goes forth.” 6 So I asked, “What is it?” And he said, “It is a basket[a] that is going forth.” He also said, “This is their resemblance throughout the earth: 7 Here is a lead disc lifted up, and this is a woman sitting inside the basket”; 8 then he said, “This is Wickedness!” And he thrust her down into the basket, and threw the lead cover over its mouth. 9 Then I raised my eyes and looked, and there were two women, coming with the wind in their wings; for they had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between earth and heaven. 10 So I said to the angel who talked with me, “Where are they carrying the basket?” 11 And he said to me, “To build a house for it in the land of Shinar;[c] when it is ready, the basket will be set there on its base.” Footnotes: a.

Millennium Goals pose test to global governance structures After the UN set ambitious goals for improving the lives of millions of people, global governance has come to the fore. When addressing issues of worldwide significance many nations need to be at the table, experts say. The United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDG) include pledges to wipe out extreme poverty, achieve universal primary education, promote gender equality, reduce rates of child mortality, fight epidemic diseases, and develop a global partnership for development. The international nature of these global goals leaves individual nations struggling for effective solutions that transcend their borders. That's where "global governance" comes in. It works to create international structures capable of dealing with issues of global significance, and the closer the MDGs come to their deadline of 2015 the clearer multinational cooperation becomes. States' changing role "The old idea was that nation states need to be as independent as possible to be responsible to their own population," said Dirk Messner, director of the German Development Institute. "It's now become clear that we are dealing with global interdependencies and that we have to politically organize them." Such organization is crucial for shared resources such as the climate, the food supply and energy, Messner added. While the United Nations enjoys a high degree of respect when it comes to international debate, it suffers under its inability to take quick action in an emergency. "We've just been through a small revolution that's been overlooked by a lot of people: We've seen the shift from a world economy organized by the G-8 to a G-20-organized global governance, which includes several emerging and developing nations that until now did not take part in the global development and political processes," Messner said. Path to balanced agreements He added that having more countries at the table deciding on global issues would increase the likelihood that developing nations' concerns are heard and that an agreement that balances the interests of the industrialized and developing world can be made. Germany has shown itself to be interested in a finding a way to balance international interests, according to Juergen Zattler, the head of the German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development's department for European and multinational development policy. "We hope that once the global governance structure is in place we can talk about a variety of topics," he said. "That members of the international community get closer together and more capable of taking action and that global deals can be made." NGOs out in the cold While Zattler said giving more influence to the G-20 would be a promising step toward successful multinational negotiation on the MDGs and climate change, a shift toward a G-20 dominated landscape still leaves civil non-national organizations in the cold, according to Jens Martens of the Global Policy Forum Europe. "Civil groups and non-government organizations have a right to take part in discussions at the United Nations," he said. "In other bodies, such as the G-20, this is not the case. It's an exclusive club of governments that meets behind closed doors." Instead of creating new organizations designed to quicken decision making by circumventing the UN, Martens said the world body deserved strengthening - despite its cumbersome nature. "The more parties take part the harder it gets - that's democracy," he said. "But it's worth the effort to make truly representative decisions and to take into account the interests of the groups that otherwise don't have a say. In terms of the Millennium Goals it's the interests of the world's poorest people." http://www.dw-world.de/dw/article/0,,6010740,00.html
