Taste and See

A few days ago, I took the boys for a treat of ice cream after a particularly productive day at school and life in general. Each of the boys received an ice cream cone dipped in chocolate. They loved it, but perhaps Kendall enjoyed it most of all. He savored that treat! His face, hands, clothes, and seat were a mess, but he relished and delighted in his special treat.

That , my friend, is my hope for us- that we relish and delight in the treats we are given from the Father. Our precious family, friends, opportunities, and gifts as well as the words of our precious Lord and Savior (scriptures). We have so much to delight in.... We have a Savior who has given us life- an eternal life- and freedom from all that would hold us in bondage. Let us savor, enjoy, and embrace wholly this precious life we have been given!!

Taste and see that the Lord is good. Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him! (Psalms 34:8 NLT)
