A day without coffee?!!


 I love my coffee every morning. Especially that first sip, right? I started my day this very morning, before the dawn as I often do, sitting in the darkness of my screened-in porch. Sipping. Reflecting. Enjoying the stillness with the Lord before the day began.

Many of us “HAVE TO” start our day with coffee (or tea). Sometimes with our bible in front of us. Sometimes in a to-go cup. But either way, it’s become kind of a must.

But there are people out there, I am sure, who’s grocery budget could not cover the luxury of coffee this week…

So I’m going to start buying coffee and tea every week and put them in the local food bank. May it in some small way, set the world right, get someone’s day off on the right foot, be the pause and the “thank You, God” first thing for them.

I’m telling the solemn truth: Whenever you did one of these things to someone overlooked or ignored, that was Me - you did it to Me. (Matthew 25:40 MSG)

    What a lovely idea! A coffee/tea ministry! Maybe we could support this with a receptacle for donations of coffee and tea at our Sunday Morning Coffee Mingle!

    I am on board. Will be looking for the opportunity to know someone’s day is warmed first thing in the morning Perhaps I can add a tea bag to the books I place in the Free Library. Thank you for the inspiration
