Have
you had your Joy Juice today? This fresh
batch for the New Year is extra tasty!
“O
taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusts in him.”
Psalm 34:8
What verse
to hide in our hearts! It’s an open invitation to each of us…to experience the
goodness of God’s salvation, His constant love, His continual mercies and His
irrepressible joy!
The entire
34th Psalm is a song of gratitude. David was singing praises to God
for rescuing him from his fears and troubles.
These words should be an encouragement to each of us! And this is just a
foretaste of what’s to come!
God
promises redemption. He has great
blessings of joy prepared for those who trust in Him. Let’s never forget the extent of His
love….though we can never quite grasp its enormity! His love is the supreme
sacrificial love that He gave (and continues to give) through His Son, Jesus
Christ.
My Bible
footnote explains: “Taste and see” does
not mean “check out God’s credentials.” Instead it is a warm invitation. “Try
this; I know you’ll like it!” When we take that first step of obedience in
following God, we cannot help discovering that he is good and kind. When we begin the Christian life, our
knowledge of God is partial and incomplete.
As we trust Him daily, we experience how good He is.” (NIV Life
Application Bible)
Taste and see that the Lord
is good…drink in and enjoy the beauty of His special joy…today and
every day
