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

a breezy way of life...

A friend reminded me today... about the nature of a Spirit led life...

"...The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit." ---Jesus
John 3:8 ESV

That's how it's felt lately... thinking my day will go one way... planning out when I will do what... and having things change... as unexpectedly as the direction of the wind... my day falls out differently...

At this point... right now... I'm wondering... 
When will I get to the grocery store...? 
How will everything get done...? 

And then I remember... I'm waiting on God... not on me...

The plans made... I've made with an ear toward Him... the commitments made... I've made believing His call was at the heart... so ultimately... it's His to take care of... His to direct and guide... and bring to completion...

Me... I'll listen... look attentively toward Him... waiting for the Wind... to provide the time... and direction...

Lord... I commit my way... my day... to You...
Guide me... in each step... bless me with a willing spirit...
to follow You... despite... my plans...
