Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.

Psalm 34:8

The first gift of Scripture is not pressure but perspective. Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.

Joy in Scripture is often discovered through nearness to God rather than perfect conditions. The goodness of God is something to be tasted, not merely discussed.

This passage invites delight as well as trust. Memorize the first sentence and use it when anxiety or distraction rises.
