Taste and see that the LORD is good … — Psalm 34:8
Some of you have tasted and seen that life is bad. Life is cruel. Life is unfair. But the Lord extends an invitation to experience something bigger than life. Taste and see that the LORD is good.
In our book, Amazing Faith, my coauthor Thomas Shaw tells the story of a woman who experienced one bad thing after another until finally she was flat on her back with a broken back and in great pain. A Christian radio station was on, but instead of bringing her comfort, it only brought her irritation. She longed to get up to turn it off, but she didn’t have the strength to do so. So she was stuck listening to a crazy story about a woman making a carrot cake.
Carrot cake: The ingredients, by themselves, were disgusting. But, combined and baked, the product was delicious.
In her pain, this woman suddenly realized that the Lord was speaking to her. Her mouth was clamped down on one of the distasteful ingredients of life – and there was no room for her to taste the love of God.

What happens when you partner with Dwight Clough Ministries?
Victims of violent crimes and survivors of abuse are finding peace,
wholeness, the power to forgive and the strength to set boundaries.
Those ensnared by addictions are finding freedom. Marriages are being
restored. Families are strengthened. Christian brothers and sisters in
restricted lands who face persecution are finding strength and
encouragement. Young believers are learning how to walk with the Lord,
and people are coming into the faith for the first time. None of this
happens as a result of one person’s efforts, but rather this is God’s
work as He blesses the sacrifice of many people including yourself. We
partner with you, with other ministries, and, most significantly, with
the Lord. That’s how the supernatural happens.
