There is something interesting I find about tasting, maybe others have found it too. Over time you can begin to savour the taste and do really get to like it but equally over time you can get tired of it. The real question for me is, how do I continue to savour the taste of Christ.

Without a doubt Christ has been good to me, His blessings are real in both tangible and intangible ways…inspite of this knowledge and fact there are times when I do things that makes me question my own “delight” in doing God’s will. Sometimes I may even seek to justify why I do things that are clearly from Christian tradition not “kosher” (if i may borrow from the jewish language)

I pray every day that my walk will be as He wills and that i will continue to feel delighted with tasting from His table.

Oh sure, this was a very good article. Day by day as christians we have to try and develop a love and passion for God. By reading his word, praying,fasting and serving others. If we fail to do any of these things then we are not going to acquire the true taste of God. Lets endeavour to get in an intimate relationship with our saviour

Matthew 4:4 “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds forth from the mouth of God.” There are some foods that are very beneficial to us, but don’t actually excite us when it comes to taste. It’s important that we don’t reject certain things on the basis of taste alone. Beyond taste, comes chewing, and then digestion. We need to take the time to chew on God’s Word and allow the juices of the Holy Spirit help us to digest and assimilate His truth for us personally.

My taste for the Lord is growing day-by-day. It has been almost three years since I accepted Jesus and I can clearly see how far I have grown in my faith, in my knowledge and in my share of the ministry.

But I know I still have a really long way to go. There are many parts of the Bible I have not read. I have days where I don’t feel as enthusiastic about God, which is probably normal, but the Devil beats you up over. Thank you, God, you are forgiving!

It is a lifelong journey, the way is steep, narrow, and not easy. But I have God for my feet, Jesus to guide me, and the Holy Spirit to lead me.

Each day I find myself deeper in faith, deeper in love, and deeper in God.
