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

rest... the way of salvation...

For thus said the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel,
"In returning and rest you shall be saved;
in quietness and in trust shall be your strength."
But you were unwilling...
Isaiah 30:15 ESV

Rest... it's the way of salvation...

Returning to Him through repentance...
recognizing there is no way to save ourselves...
resting in His work... His way... His Word...
is the way we are saved...

But we... won't... have it...

For the most part... mankind is unwilling...
we should be able to work things out ourselves...
in our own strength...
our own righteousness...
our own way...

Pride refuses to let us rest... and be saved...

But He tells us...
In returning... and rest... you shall be saved...

There is no other way...
