Are You Tasting and Seeing the Goodness of God Today?
Nothing in this world can satisfy your soul like God can. Edwards reminds you that true happiness is found in knowing and enjoying God. While the world offers temporary pleasures, only God can fill the deepest longings of your heart. When you seek Him first, you find the peace and joy that surpasses understanding.
Life is but a breath, don’t give it the things that don’t matter. Today, do not chase the things of this world but instead draw near to God. Taste and see His goodness. Let His presence be the source of your satisfaction and joy.
Because He, an life with Him, will last forever.
"Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!"
— Psalm 34:8
