Too Late

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

~Psalm 34:8 (ESV)

---

Once you taste and see that the Lord is good...
...It's pretty much too late for you.
No matter where you go, where you stray, what you pursue,
There is likely always a nagging--a knowledge deep down--
That the Lord is the only good.
That the Lord is the only One Who can or will ever satisfy.

Can you relate?
Can you reminisce?
There are times upon which you reflect,
Times of goodness and assurance with Christ--
Times of surety at His being the only-way--
Times of satisfaction in what He has provided.

KNOW.
Know that you can experience those days again.

BE SURE.
Be sure that you will praise Him again, if you will only embrace and obey Him.
Be sure of it!

INSIST.
Insist that you make your body your slave and that it seeks the truth every day.

For without a pursuit, we are sure to go nowhere with Him.
But with one...

Who knows what treasures God has in store for those who seek Him?

So it is God's kindness that if you've tasted of His goodness before that it is not easily forgotten.

YOU WILL BE REFRESHED.

"The afflicted shall eat and be satisfied; those who seek him shall praise the Lord! May your hearts live forever!"
~Psalm 22:26 (ESV)

"Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation and my God."
~Psalm 42:11 (ESV)

"The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him."
~Lamentations 3:25 (ESV)
