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

the morning quiet

This morning... still dark... quiet...
only the steady hum of power through appliances...
no one else stirring...

Bible open before me... with Him...
preparing for the day ahead...

A peace... descends... surrounds...
like a cocoon...

How do I carry this...
His peace...
His presence...
with me through the day...?

Soon the silence will be broken... by others stirring...
tasks to be taken care of...
places to be...

How do I keep the quiet of a heart...?

Lord Jesus... wrap me in Your Word... 
Your grace... Your peace...
Help me to remember...
You are present... in every moment...
Your unfailing love... accessible... always before me...

"...It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you;
he will not leave you or forsake you.
Do not fear or be dismayed."
Deuteronomy 31:8
ESV
