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

more on messes...

Thoughts about my messy corner where He meets me continue...

I think about other areas of my life...
areas where I've grown in order...
less messes in many places...

I think about the mess in my corner...
it's a place I would love to be orderly and beautiful...
a place with no clutter... clean... pristine...

I even think about starting over...
in a new area...
a space dedicated to Him...
(not that his one isn't... it just doesn't look like my flesh thinks it should look...)

And I realize...
this place... messy... cluttered... out of control...
might just be... exactly the way He wants it...

It just might be a reminder of my messes...
my need for Him...
how much I am NOT in control...

Yes... I think messy is where He wants me to be...
when I seek Him...
a humble hovel... of need...

And me? I'm a mess. I'm nothing and have nothing:
make something of me. You can do it; you've got what it takes...
Psalm 40:17 Msg

I praise You Lord... the Cleanser of the messes I make...
