Have you ever seen that subreddit of people who leave bad reviews on recipes they only partially followed?
There is an invitation in the Bible to "taste and see that Jehovah is good."
But to do that there is action on our part.
The world of religion is full of people lobbying as "pro-life" in a secular legal capacity, but not actually living out kindness towards orphans and widows that God expects. People say that Jesus saved them, yet they harshly judge and look down on their neighbour.
They say they hope in God for a future, yet they prioritize money.
Religion without love or hope or wisdom is like a cake without sugar or flour or eggs. It doesn't have the right flavour, it is missing the substance, or it just doesn't hold quite right.
Solomon had the wisdom, but he did not have hope, and he lost his faith.
If someone doesn't follow the whole recipe and it doesn't turn out, would you leave a bad review on the recipe?
I hope you get to taste and see that God is good.
