Taste and See the Lord is good.

Thoughts, Prayers and Words of Encouragement: So as I reflect on the past month,,,I can hardly believe that I have not written for a month.....but looking back it has all been about "taste and see the Lord is good."

Over the past month we have been working diligently on Mel and Andrew Mitchells house...it is amazing....how God provides people a taste of Him....for instance....all the contractors and mechanical guys worked together on the house to finish the work needed in a week....usually a month process. Then we needed NO RAIN and the Lord held back and the showers for 26 days, and is holding it again since we have roofers to complete the roof....

I have often pondered over the taste and see...but today I get it....all the delightful appetizers He uses like rain and unity, then the entrees...of volunteers and donations of goods, then the desserts of more Love than your heart can hold and all at once WE SEE IT>>>>HE is GOOD.

So often when I am challenged with a situation with family, ministry or life...I have the tendency to forget the wonderful taste of the Lord...without that taste it is hard for me to see....lately as I still struggle after my eye surgery to read....I realize that the See part and the Taste part are working together...

Lord let my senses be always tuned to you...to be sharp, watchful and desiring to taste MORE AND MORE....love you di
