I just tasted something and it was so good.
YUMMY is an understated phrase here!
Ok, you know in Psalm 34:8 where it says, “Taste and see that the LORD is good. Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in Him!”? Well, I sunk my teeth into some scripture and discovered the recipe for a good life. Check it out:
“Because you have these blessings, do all you can to add to your life these things: to your faith add goodness; to your goodness add knowledge; 6 to your knowledge add self-control; to your self-control add patience; to your patience add devotion to God; 7 to your devotion add kindness toward your brothers and sisters in Christ, and to this kindness add love.” 2 Peter 1:5-7
Your ingredients are: faith, goodness, knowledge, self-control, patience, devotion to God, kindness, and love! But, just having those ingredients are not all that it takes to have “a good life”. There is so much more to come on the verses that follow. Stay tuned for the next two postings to expand on this recipe for a good life.
In the meantime, practice and pray for these “ingredients” to fill your thoughts, words, and actions.
I pray many blessings and much joy for you! Have a wonderful day. – Stephanie
