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

ponder... this...

Words from a hymn in worship this morning...

Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence

Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
and with fear and trembling stand;
ponder nothing earthly minded,
for with blessing in his hand,
Christ our God to earth descendeth,
our full homage to demand.

---from the Liturgy of St. James, 4th century

...they make me stop... and consider... Do I fear the Lord... as I should...? am I too entangled in this world...? think too highly of my own understanding...?

I hear the counsel given... flesh... keep... silence...

The Lord is in his holy temple;
let all the earth be silent before him.
Habakkuk 2:20 NIV

Lord Jesus... I still the voice of my heart... flesh... soul... in deference to You...
