“Identifying What's Missing”
(Inspired by Psalm 34:8)
A good cook can often tell when something is missing from a dish—just one taste, and they know. Maybe it needs a little salt, a dash of spice, or something sweet to bring the whole flavor together. The same is true in our spiritual lives. Sometimes, we can sense that something is missing in our relationship with God. The “flavor” of our faith doesn’t feel quite right.
If you find yourself feeling spiritually dull or disconnected, don’t ignore that nudge. Ask the Lord to reveal what’s missing. Is it time spent in His Word? Is it prayer, gratitude, forgiveness, or simply slowing down to listen to His voice? Whatever it is, God already knows—and He’s ready to restore what’s broken.
The beauty of God’s grace is that He doesn’t just point out what’s lacking; He supplies exactly what we need. He is the Master Chef of our souls, blending His love, mercy, and truth until our lives reflect His goodness.
So today, take a moment to taste and see again. Draw near to Him. Let Him renew the flavor of your faith. Because when God restores, He doesn’t just make things as they were—He makes them better than before.
In His Grace,
Pastor Darryl K. Cox
