“…his taste remained in him, and his scent has not changed.” Jeremiah 48:11
Taste: The more I walk with God, the more I find my taste is changing. I simply have lost a taste for some things, and I find my spiritual taste buds longing for other things. It’s not just because I’m not 15 anymore, or because I have grown up, why there are plenty of people my age who still like to smoke weed, get drunk and live in sin. No, my taste has changed and is changing because of my relationship with God. The more we walk with Him, and the closer we get, the more defined our taste will become.
Scent: If I hang out with cows, I’m gonna smell like a cow; profound I know. Well, the same is true spiritually. If I’m hanging out with the garbage this world has to offer, it’s going to rub off on me, and I will not smell so good. If, however, I’m soaking up the presence of God, my spiritual scent will be pleasant.
