A CHRISTIAN FRIEND of mine told me that in one of our large cities a boy was once walking along with a pot of honey in his hand, when a man stopped him and inquired what he had in the pot. “Honey, sir,” was the reply.
“What is honey?” inquired the gentleman.
“Sweet stuff, sir.”
“How sweet is it?”
“Very, very sweet, sir.”
“What do you mean by very, very sweet?”
“Here, taste it for yourself,” said the youngster, at the same time handing him the pot of honey.
Now this is just what we want our young readers to do as to the goodness of God. “O taste and see that the LORD is good.” (Psa. 34:88O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. (Psalm 34:8).) Then you will be able to finish this verse by saying from your heart, “Blessed is the man that trusteth in Him.”
