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
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

practicing... present tense...

I'm approaching the end of a spiritual discipline... one I've been practicing seven months...

The nearer the end... the harder it seems... the past 32 weeks do not give strength... for the remaining nine days...

Today... the day to focus on... the One who is present... I Am That I Am... only in the present... only in the moment... He is the same... yesterday... today... and tomorrow... because He is only... I Am... present tense...

The same way I started... the same way each day... is still the only way to finish... the discipline learned... focus on Him... He alone... the strength... the Way... day... by... day...

Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
Hebrews 12:2-3
(emphasis mine)
