A Quick Thought: Taste and See

"Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good!
    Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!"

I've always related this verse with the satisfaction of trusting in God, the pleasure of knowing Him. Like a big, juicy steak, the assurance of trusting God fills and satisfies our souls. 

However, there's more to tasting than satisfaction. 

When you take the first bite of a delicious meal, do you throw the fork down and proclaim the meal finished? No! If one taste is delicious, you want another! Would a worn and hungry man be satisfied with a single bite of a hardy, well-prepared meal, or would he immediately desire more?

Taste and see that the Lord is good. Even a morsel of God's love, providence, and sovereignty is enough to set our souls to craving more.
