📖 Verse of the Day
“Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in Him.”
Reflection:
When do we say "God is good"? Usually when the news is, too. A check arrives the same week as the bill, and the words are out before the envelope is all the way open. They belong there.
David found another place for them. He was running from King Saul when he ended up in front of another king, and the man who had faced Goliath was very much afraid. He pretended to be insane, was driven away, and escaped to a cave. That is the day Psalm 34 comes from.
What had David tasted on a day like that? He doesn't dress it up: "This poor man called, and the Lord heard him." He ran to God afraid, and God took him in. Then he turns to the rest of us. He calls blessed anyone who runs where he ran, "the one who takes refuge in Him."
That puts what David tasted within your reach on every kind of day there is. If today is a glad one, enjoy Him with all your heart. And if it has you looking for somewhere to run, run to Him. There's no shame in it. In this psalm, that is what makes you blessed.
Ask Yourself:
When did I last say "God is good," and what had just happened?
Who do I tell first when the news is bad?
🙏 Prayer of the Day
Heavenly Father,
I'm calling on You with nothing dressed up, only myself and this day. I need You, and I'm not hiding it. Thank You for hearing me, and for taking me in.
Give me a taste of Your goodness, and eyes that don't miss it. Keep Your praise on my lips, on the hard days as surely as the glad ones.
I take refuge in You, and I count myself blessed to have Someone so good to run to.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
