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

reminders... from Christmas...

Recognizing failure as a reminder... spurs thoughts of other reminders...

A nativity from Christmas... still graces the shelf in my kitchen... intentional... not forgotten...



There to remind me of His presence in the world... the sacrifices made... Mary's... Joseph's... Jesus's... for Him to come...

To understand better... who He is...

 

naked... wrapped in swaddling cloths...

hungry... a newborn's cry to be filled...

imprisoned... the Creator confined...infinite to infant...

out of love for others... to save... rescue... redeem...

My goal... to know Him better...

...be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of lawless men and fall from your secure position.
But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
2Peter 3:17:18
(my emphasis)

...growing knowledge of Jesus protects from deception...

...the new self... is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.
Colossians 3:10
(my emphasis)

...the new self renewed in knowledge of Him... becoming more like Him...

Reminders set to set my mind in a position to know more... to know the Word made flesh...

Do you have reminders?
What are they for?
Do you have any focused on the eternal?

Remind yourself... grow in knowledge of Him...
