2022: Taste and See that the Lord is Good

by Ken Barnes  
1/01/2022 / Christian Living

Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.(Psalms 34:8 NIV)

I am a Protestant, but I think I might be a little Catholic. Have you ever noticed how Catholic Priests kiss the Bible? There are times where I feel the urge to embrace my Bible.

Once, my wife and I went to Ruth’s Chris Steak House with a gift certificate. It was not just a meal but an experience. The steak was served on a steaming plate, succulent and juicy.   The sides were like meals in themselves. The desert was a culinary delight. 

If you met people in your Church that had never been to Ruth’s Chris, you might describe to them the delight to your taste buds. They would believe you and could even imagine in their minds how the steak looked. You could even get them salivating, but if they never went and tried it for themselves, they would never really know how good it was. Furthermore, they would get no nutrition.   Such is how it is with the Word of God.

I believe in teaching and preaching; I do a little of it myself. If you rely on your pastor or Sunday school teacher for all your spiritual food, you are on a starvation diet. No one can exist on one or two meals a week. Many church people know about God, but they never really know God. It is second-hand knowledge. Good Bible teaching always makes people hungry enough to go and find out for themselves.

I have read through the Bible every year I can remember. That never made me perfect, just better than I was.

In 2022, taste and see that the Lord is good.

I worked for seventeen years as a missionary with Youth With A Mission. My missionary work has taken me to Mexico, Canada, Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, Spain, and Ukraine. I hold a Masters of Education in curriculum and instruction from Virginia Commonwealth University. [email protected]
