Taste and see that the Lord is good.
Psalm 34:8
It is important to have a deep heart knowledge of the Lord. Head knowledge of God is useless when the wind starts blowing and the waves start crashing. Like a hat blown into the surf, head knowledge is the first thing to abandon ship when we get into rough patches.
So what do you do? How do you prepare for the storms? Simple. Feed on the Lord. Devour the things of the Lord and make them part of your very soul. See that the Lord is good. Make it a habit to look around you and see God provides all your needs. He takes care of you when things are going smooth, so don't you think He will do the same when you are struggling and really need some assistance? God is not a fair-weather friend!
Taste, the love of God is sweet, not bitter. Taste of His love enough that you recognize its flavor and carry its memory in your heart. Watch with your eyes and your heart. Do not let a moment pass where you do not see and taste what He is doing all around you.
God is Love and Love is a verb. Experience teaches us what a verb means, so experience God and take Him into your heart before the winds begin to blow.
