Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him! Oh, fear the Lord, you his saints, for those who fear him have no lack! The young lions suffer want and hunger; but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.
~Psalm 34:8-10
The honey bees have made a comeback in my garden, and have been very busy on my sunflowers. It's amazing that something regurgitated by an insect tastes so good (honey). But it certainly does, once you stop thinking about it, and get it in your mouth..
God's goodness is not always evident on the surface, either. Sometimes you have to really taste it to evaluate it. Those of us who have been carried by Jesus through times of loss and disease, trials and heart-break, have tasted deeply of God's goodness-- not despite those difficulties, but in and through and because of them.
If you've not yet tasted to see that the Lord is good, Gentle Reader, don't wait another day.
