Believing and Tasting

"There is a difference between believing that God is holy and gracious, and having a new sense of heart of the loveliness and beauty of that holiness and grace. The difference between believing that God is gracious and tasting that God is gracious is as different as having a rational belief that honey is sweet and having the actual sense of it's sweetness."
- Jonathan Edwards
