An invitation to take and eat

Picture someone walking into a room that is full of luxurious items. All of the items are free to take: golden crowns, jewels and rich foods. All for free. All readily available.

As the person walks around the room they are afraid to touch the items; afraid to take anything, afraid to eat any of the food.

The Lord is saying, “This is the season of the promised land, but so many of my children have been in the wilderness for so long that they do not know how to taste and how to eat.”

Ask the Lord to help you to touch, taste and take of the promised land. You are in it now, it is all around you. It will not break or crumble when you grab it. It is not as fragile as you perceive it. Take and eat.

Psalm 34:8
Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.
