Taste and See

Psalms 33-35

Taste and see the goodness of the Lord! What a wonderful invitation. What is the proper response to one who merely speaks, and the heavens are created...who breathes and the stars are born? What do you say to one who understands everything you do because he made your heart? What gift can you give to one who watches over you, hears your cries for help, and rescues you from your troubles?

This trio of psalms lifts up the awesome might, worthiness, and righteousness of the Lord as a target of constant praise and adoration. The psalmist proclaims that "with every bone in my body I will praise him." It is only right that our response is one of unbridled adoration and praising all the day long.
