Taste And See That The Lord Is Good

"Taste and see that the Lord is good. Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him!" (Psalm 34:8)

This command is not only metaphorical.I believe that God intended us to experience the full range of beauty in the world as a testament to His generous love for us.

Even when faced with crucifixion, Jesus gave His disciples reason to celebrate: “When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am” (John 14:3).

In celebration, we declare that God is not done with us yet. Ultimately, evil does not have the final word. We celebrate in thanksgiving for what God has done, and we celebrate in expectation of His final victory.

How can ­ you — and your ­children — taste and see that the Lord is good?
