O TASTE AND SEEE THAT THE LORD IS GOOD.....

O taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man that trusts in Him                                                 - Psalm 34:8

Delicious food is something everyone can agree upon. There are so many variations of  flavors and textures.

It's been said that the one thing that separates every culture from each other is not the type of food each one identifies with but the seasoning that makes it special and most enjoyable.

The same can be said when it comes to knowing you can trust in the goodness of God. Take for example your favorite meal of choice.

There is a unique experience that takes place within each of us during this time of feasting that brings a sense of enjoyment and joy that never fades. Many times we strive to improve on these flavors with great success, while other times it does not turn out as hoped.

But the key is we never give up until we are satisfied. Then we want to share it with our family and friends so they can experience the same kind of joy for themselves.

When David wrote this part of the Psalms he was so impressed by the joy and confidence he had discovered from placing his trust in God's promises.

How sweet are Your words to my taste, Sweeter than honey to my mouth!                                           Psalm 119:30

His outlook on life completely changed and he desired to share this good news with anyone who would listen.

We too can have this joy and confidence for ourselves today, but it only comes from placing our trust in his son Jesus Christ for our salvation.

And it shall come to pass That  whoever calls on the name of the Lord Shall be saved.’             - Acts 2:21

Do not miss out on this opportunity to taste for yourself the goodness of God and experience the joy only he can bring in the midst of any circumstance!
