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
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

translation of a sunrise...

Early this morning... my husband's voice reached my ear... the sunrise is pretty this morning...

And sure enough... it was one I thought glorious...


Seeing it fleshed out before me... the Word came to mind...

The heavens declare the glory of God,
and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.
Day to day pours out speech,
and night to night reveals knowledge.
Psalm 19:1-2 ESV

Sunrises... sunsets...
a language... I believe... only human eyes can translate...
a glory... only we can see...

Set in the sky... as part of His plan...
to reveal Himself... 
to those He knew would rebel...

He was not surprised... that the elements He spoke...
created brilliance...
at the beginning and end of each new day...

He knew a day would come...
when those would want to explain it away...
by particles... pollution... and light traveling through...

But those... who seek... who long to know Truth...
will recognize His glory...
and see His handiwork...
being voiced... through the skies...
and translated... by faith...
in those who believe...
to songs of praise... and thanks...

The Mighty One, God the Lord,
speaks and summons the earth
from the rising of the sun to its setting.
Psalm 50:1 ESV
