Taste of Perfection

Psalm 34:8 - O taste and see that the LORD is good:

 

If you knew you would be wandering in the wilderness for forty years, you would panic, wondering how you would find food to eat. That’s what the Israelites did even though God had just miraculously released them from slavery in Egypt. Why do we forget that God is bigger than our fears and difficulties?

Hungry, the Israelites woke up one morning wondering where breakfast would come from. As the dew lifted from the ground, there lay God’s provision---manna---which sustained the Israelites for forty years until they entered the Promised Land (Exodus 16). No man-made solution could have provided an omer (six pints) of manna per person for two million people---every single day. God did it! He’s always the answer for our needs.

Do you ever spend sleepless nights projecting your future and wondering how you will solve seemingly insurmountable problems? You may feel that life is pointless. You’re in a wilderness experience, and the help you need is not from yourself or any other person. Jesus is your manna, all-sufficient for the ups and downs of your life. Have you tried Him? Have you tasted? Have you trusted? “Oh taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who trusts in Him (Psalm 34:8).
