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

advent begins... first sunday...

Advent... from the Latin... advenire... 
to reach... arrive... an... Are we there yet...? word...

Today begins... (in church tradition...) the time of waiting for the celebration... of the arrival of Christ...

Reminded... that those who believe... wait perpetually in the season of Advent... for His return...

The word for the first Sunday in Advent...

Hope

Hope... found...
in a manger in Bethlehem...
in the Word made flesh...
in the Way to the Father...
in relationship with Him...

This Word for those who Believe... transforms hearts and lives...

...anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person.
The old life is gone; a new life has begun!
2 Corinthians 5:17 NLT

A hope of new...

Consider today... this first Sunday of waiting...

How does your relationship with Christ 
reveal itself today...? what's new...? 
what's changed...?

Or... if you have yet to take hold of the hope found in Him...

What transformation do you hope for...?
What do you desire for Him to make new...? redeem...?

Examine your heart... your life... for evidence of Him... 

Seek anew... as we wait...


[More on Advent... from the one who reminded me...

You can also mark the days... and read the story of His birth... through The Heart of Bethlehem... ]
