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

lean on Him... Jeremiah 17:7-8...

"Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord.
He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream,
and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green,
and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit."
Jeremiah 7:7-8 ESV

The blessing of the one who trusts in the Lord is evident...
like a tree planted near a stream...
an ever-present supply of living water...

"...Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said,
'Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.'" ---Jesus
John 7:38 ESV

Trusting in the Lord... believing in Him... leaning on Him...
has its benefits...
no fear from heat... or drought...
always fresh... alive... green...
no worry... because He makes the way for fruit to grow...

Are you planted near Him...? trusting in Him...?
Do you sense the blessings...? carefree attitude...? He promises...?

This is the last lean on Him... in this series...
and this is one of my favorite reminders... to trust in Him... 
blessed... like a tree planted by water...

Life abundant...
fruitful for Him...
when everyone else might be wasting a way...

Learn to lean on Him... trust in Him...
because this is life... rest... peace... hope...
