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

eternity... it's planted in your heart...

You ever wonder why...? you get so upset when something wears out...? breaks down...? You just don't understand why things don't last...?

He has made everything beautiful in its time.
He also has planted eternity in men's hearts and minds...
Ecclesiastes 3:11 Amp

God has made everything beautiful in its time...
yet He planted eternity in the hearts of men...

Everything has an expiration date...
People only have one because of sin... which leads to death...

He created us in His image...
He created us for eternity...

This dichotomy... results in frustration...
it's a reminder things are not as they should be...
we don't belong in this broken world...

He graciously made a Way...
for us to return to Him... eternally...
His name is Jesus...

The next time something favorite breaks down...
the hole in the just right jeans...
the refrigerator just 15 years old...
the knees that won't run anymore...
the hair that ends up on the floor...
recognize the truth...

There is an eternity to be had...
it's just not here...
in this body...
or this world...

A new one's coming...
