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

words for the end of a day...

As I come to the end of a day...
feeling... tired...
words from a morning's devotional come to mind...
"Help, Lord." --- Psalm 12:1
David mourned the fewness of faithful men, and therefore lifted up his heart in supplication; when the creature failed, he flew to the Creator. He evidently felt his own weakness, or he would not have cried for help; but at the same time he intended honestly to exert himself for the cause of the truth, for the word "help" is inapplicable where we ourselves do nothing.
---Oswald Chambers, Morning and Evening
I mourn... at the fewness of strength...
cry... Help... Lord...
and exert myself...
to complete the final chores of the day...

In the spiritual realm...
the making of dinner...
the cleaning of a kitchen...
can be a battle field...

I choose to serve... my family...
but I know... I need His help...

So my words for the end of the day...?

Help... Lord...

For I can do everything through Christ,
who gives me strength.
Philippians 4:13 NLT
