Taste and See That God is Good

You likely do not have everything you want, but you have everything you need: breath in your lungs, blood in your veins, a heart that can love and fear the Lord. When you fall into the trap of believing you are lacking, you tend to move and act out of a place of unhealthy fear and scarcity. You look for value in the things of this world, hoping they will fulfill you or create a sense of abundance, security, and peace. But God himself is your sustainer. The psalmist calls you to taste and see that the Lord is good and reminds you that in His arms, you don’t need to fear. God provides everything you need, so you can take heart in His trustworthiness and find rest. Instead of believing you are lacking, surrender your daily needs to Him with open hands.

Reflect + Apply

Ask God to help you take a step toward trusting Him with your daily needs.

Prayer

God, I have tasted and seen that You are good. Help me to remember your faithfulness in the past and trust in it in the future. I know I am safe with You as my provider.
