Indeed, you have tasted that the Lord is good. 1 Peter 2:3
​
What was the happiest day of your life? The best time of your life? What is a recent example of God’s
blessings coming to you? What makes your heart swell with joy and bring a smile to your face? If we’re
lucky, we have to stop and think about these questions, because we’ve had many wonderful days: the day
we graduated, the day we were married, the day a child was born. We’ve had many happy times: family
holidays, warm hugs from a parent, the love of a spouse, satisfaction in our work. There are many things
that touch and light up our hearts: music, art, being forgiven or reconciled to someone, being part of the family of the church. However we answer these questions, let’s realize that we have, indeed, tasted that the Lord is good.

“Thank you, Lord, for all of the memorable days, all of the times when life has been so, so good. Thank you for all of the joys that have come to me, and all of the blessings … even some miracles … that you have sent to me. Let me never forget how good you are, and let me always savor the taste of your goodness.”
