Seed for June 19

"Oh taste and see that the Lord is good!" The psalmist says. When we encounter the Lord Jesus we soon discover His goodness! It is the goodness of the Lord that leads a man to repentance, not brow beating, as some suppose. The gospel is called the "good news" and if it is not good, full of the sweetness of the Lord, then it is not good news. We have given God a face, hands, a mouth, and collectively a Body to manifest His goodness thru. Lets remember that to call ourselves "Christian" we say we reflect Him! Just as the moon has no light of her own, but reflects the glory of the sun, so we have no light or glory, but reflect the glory and light of Jesus. Lets make sure we show Him to be good, so that when others taste of our fruit, they will declare, "Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good!" Be blessed.
