Psalm 37:4 (WEB) Also delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Promise #320: Delight in Me and I will give you the longings of your heart.

Psalm 34:8 (WEB) Oh taste and see that Yahweh is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him. Promise #316: Taste and you will see that I am a good God. When I think of today’s promise, I think of the difference between looking at a shiny red apple and tasting it. No matter how tasty the apple looks on the outside, the only way that I will truly experience its goodness is to take a big bite out of it! It is when I sink my teeth into it, that I will be able to taste and...
