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

reminded... i hate death...

Today... death struck suddenly... unexpected... dreams crushed... future plans destroyed...

A dear friend... suddenly a widow...

I hate death....

Sudden... unexpected... death... reminds me how horrible it is...

Too often... whether from chronic illness... or old age... death masquerades as a relief... an escape...

It's not... death is death... the ravages of a sin-full world... the product of a rebellious people... a reminder of the broken world in which we live...

Therefore, just as sin entered the world through  one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned...
Romans 5:12

Reminded of death's origin... sin...


Reminded why Jesus came to die...


I hate death...

But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1Corinthians 15:57

Thank You, Jesus... You made the way for life... defeated death... thank You that my friend's husband knew You... thank You for Your love... mercy... grace... thank You for Your victory over death... use this death to bring Life to those who do not yet know You...
