Develope a Palate

Develope a Palate
Daily intake of the Word nourishes the Spirit. Jeremiah's Menu is an exercise in recognizing God's Word made flesh in and around me. Eating the Word in a way that supplies the spiritual nutrients needed to grow. The Menu is offered with the hope of inspiring you to taste and see that the Lord is good. Bon Appetite!

Quote Du Jour

Quote du Jour
Christians may differ on a variety of points, but they have all one spiritual appetite; and if we cannot all feel alike, we can all feed alike on the bread of life sent down from heaven. At the table of fellowship with Jesus we are one bread and one cup. As the loving cup goes round we pledge one another heartily therein. Get nearer to Jesus, and you will find yourself linked more and more in spirit to all who are like yourself, supported by the same heavenly manna. ---Charles Spurgeon, Morning and Evening

serving and sacrifice

To serve... wait... worship... in the moment... moment by moment... we must be empty...

Empty of... expectations... agendas... self-interests... self...

Exodus...
The work of worship: sacrifice... killing of livestock...

Jesus... our Sacrifice... self-emptied...

Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God -- this is your spiritual act of worship.
Romans 12:1



Lord, Jesus, lead me to the cross, rid me of myself, I long to worship wholly and serve fully...

What do you need to sacrifice in your life to worship well?
Are you willing to self-empty to serve?
