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

finding rest... even in unrest...

If I say, "Surely the darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night,"
even the darkness is not dark to you; the night is bright as the day,
for darkness is as light with you.
Psalm 139:11-12 ESV

Today... a rest-less heart...
waiting to see how things will get finished...

Things I believe He's called me to...
but some days... I just wonder...
is it Him...? or is it me...?
who got me into all this...

One thing... needed His inspiration...
an article on temptation...

What I discovered... in my unrest... was His inspiration...
actually... experiential knowledge...

The unrest He allowed...
led me to fall to temptation...
a short temper... a harsh word... to a loved one...
which led to a convicted heart...
and words to begin... the article on temptation...

Humbled by His ability to supply...
even in my unrest...

Marveling... at the wonder of darkness...
being as light to Him...

Out of my dark restless mood...
He brought light...

Light shining on the dark still dwelling in my heart...
and light shining on words to begin a writing He called me to...
two birds... one stone...

So now I see... a new place to rest...
I can rest in my unrest...
where He reveals...
inspires...
and uses darkness...
to bring about light...
