Why is the “coffee mug + Bible” such a ubiquitous post?
It’s a slice of our lives.
Our ritual.
Our reorienting.
A warm moment that we felt right
for in those sweet sips we had hopeful calm and we remembered
that good things like coffee and a favorite mug
are well paired with needful things
like
quiet times and trusting God
and knowing that God didn’t have to give us
delicious, simple pleasures,
but He did
and that in itself is a reminder
of what is most essential –
that God is good and He cares for us.
It’s ok to post and share. Some may scoff and dismiss – “virtue signaling” – but, you keep sipping and you keep resting and keep trusting and taking those moments to be still and reflect and enjoy the simple, sweet moments the Lord gives you.
And you go ahead and post that mug shot and savor that moment and share it with us as well.
Thank you for reading my thoughts today. I’d enjoy reading yours as well. Leave a comment below and I’ll say hi! Share this post and encourage someone else today.
