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

Wheat among weeds...

The hard living as wheat among weeds... is where Jesus lived too...

Some disciples grumbled at His Word... I am the Bread of Life...
He said...

"Do you take offense at this? Then what if you were to see
the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?
It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all.
The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.
But there are some of you who do not believe."
(For Jesus knew from the beginning who those were
who did not believe, and who it was who would betray him.)
John 6:61-64 ESV

Jesus let both Believers and unbelievers follow Him...
but eventually He said something offensive...
the offended... the weeds... stopped following...

Jesus dealt with rejection... just as we do...
those who try to follow His Word and His Way...

He knows how hard it is to be Wheat among weeds...
He knows the wheat from the weeds...

Find comfort and peace...
in the fact that He knows...

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.
I do not give to you as the world gives.
Do not let your hearts be troubled
and do not be afraid. ..." ---Jesus
John 14:27
