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

preparing...

On a morning of preparation... I'm reminded...
those who believe in Him... are the only light in the world...

And [Jesus] opened his mouth and taught them, saying...
"You are the light of the world. ..."
Matthew 5:2-14 ESV

He was speaking to those who followed Him...
yet... we can no longer physically follow Him...

So I'm wondering... How do I prepare...? to be light... the only light... in a very dark world...? today... and the days to come...?

He said...

"... As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world."
John 9:5 ESV

His Gift... made the way for Him to continue to be present in the world... through those who believe...

I'm beginning to see... even greater than before... the importance... of the Gift of His Spirit... the importance of laying down my life... for His... the importance of knowing the love with which the Gift was given... to have the confidence... to let Him lead...

By learning to boldly listen and obey His Spirit... prepares one to be light in the dark...

Lord... prepare me to shine for You today... and every day...
Be light in me... light up my life...

"...let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven." ---Jesus
Matthew 5:16 ESV
