Speak Lord: Lord of the feast

Taste and see that the Lord is good.

I will bless the Lord at all times,
his praise always on my lips;
in the Lord my soul shall make its boast.
The humble shall hear and be glad.

Taste and see that the Lord is good.

Glorify the Lord with me.
Together let us praise his name.
I sought the Lord and he answered me;
from all my terrors he set me free.

Taste and see that the Lord is good.

Look towards him and be radiant;
let your faces not be abashed.
This poor man called, the Lord heard him
and rescued him from all his distress.

Taste and see that the Lord is good.

Responsorial Psalm for the 4th Sunday of Ordinary Time
Psalm 33(34):2-7

The Lord tastes good – but sometimes other things are more tempting!

• If you do, what makes you choose the Lord over the alternatives?
• How do you live your gratitude for the choice?

• And if you presently choose an alternative over the Lord, why?
• And would you wish it were otherwise?

Bring your answers to God in prayer.
