Seed for Mar 9

Oh taste and see that the Lord is good! If anyone presents Him to us in another light, they have failed to reveal the "good news." The Good News is that we don't have to die or continue slaves to sin. He has made a way of escape, and made us more than victors! Religion makes God out to be a hard taskmaster, dangling us over the fires of hell to keep us on the straight and narrow. What a gross misrepresentation of the nature of God. He loves us with the love of a Father. Watching for our good, and promising us the best in life! He is the "way maker" where there seems to be no way. He is the "burden bearer" when the load is too much. He is the "rock higher than I" when my feet are in slippery places. He is the "lifter up of my head" when I am discouraged. He restores my soul, when I am dry and thirsty. He is on our side pulling for our victory. Oh taste and see that the Lord is good! His mercies endure forever! Be blessed.
