Ahh, coffee.

i enjoy coffee

i saw a sign once that said

"give me coffee and Jesus"

and it unraveled me slightly

Jesus is a must-have for me

but coffee is optional

and Jesus should always be

first

even on a sign

that being said

i like my coffee strong

because it's not just a drink

it's an experience

i put fufu creamer in it

sweet and strong

have you ever wondered how coffee

came to be a drink?

did someone get curious and pick

some beans and eat them...

and then realize their zoomies

were from the beans they ate?

and the next thing you know

the whole village is swinging from

the tribal chandeliers

what would they think of the

plethora of coffee choices and

car-priced coffee makers...

would they nod in approval or

scoff at our processing of coffee beans

i sit out here under the trees

whenever i can

my quiet spot

a place of

reflection

introspection

dissection

as i survey God's creation

with awe and wonder

every single day

with Jesus right here with me

through His Spirit

and as i enjoy my

coffee with a view

i thank God for the

new day He's given me

breath in my lungs

hope in my heart

and the coffee tree.

β€œThen God said, β€œLet the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth”; and it was so.

And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind.

And God saw that it was good. So the evening and the morning were the third day.” Genesis‬ ‭1‬:‭11‬-‭13‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
