A CHRISTIAN friend of mine told me that once in the city of C—a boy was walking along with a pot of honey in his hand, when a gentleman inquired what he had in the pot. His reply was. "Honey, sir." "What is honey?" inquired the gentleman. "Sweet stuff, sir," was the reply. "How sweet is it?" said the gentleman. "Very, very sweet, sir," said the boy. "What do you mean by very, very sweet? replied the gentleman. "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. "Taste and see that the Lord is good," and then you will be able to finish the verse by saying from the heart, "Blessed is the man that trusteth in him." (Psalm 34:88O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. (Psalm 34:8)). J. M.
