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

sparks fly...

The lesson of conflict... revealing hearts... resurfaces...

This time... not with spouse... but with a beloved child... offering help... direction... encouraging exploration... of future choices... possibilities...

Sparks... they flew... clearly... I frustrated the beloved...

Of course... I was too... but here I sat... seeking calm... resisting the flesh that encouraged... yelling... throwing... stomping out... giving up...

My spirit... it muscled through... and through the grace offered... eventually... we both heard... the other's heart...

Hope-fully... we both grew... closer... and more adept... at the art... of... conflict...

As iron sharpens iron,
so one man sharpens another.
Proverbs 27:17

A heated... exhausting... process... that forges... a deeper... relationship...
