Church Coffee

Sunday has always been a day for family. The day starts out with church. We attend a wonderful small church filled with the most loving caring people. From the day we first walked in three years ago, these people have made me feel loved. In all my years of attending church, this is the first place I've ever felt this way. This a very special way to start the week. Worshiping the Lord surrounded by sincere people.

Following service, we head over to the fellowship hall where bagels and coffee are set up. I've heard
 it said that more ministering goes on at those tables which really shows the heart of this church! The bagels are the best, but let's get to the coffee. When you you make coffee for over 100 people, how good can it be? Well, it's church coffee. Sometimes it's very weak, sometimes it has a little body.

I don't know what brand they use, but it doesn't matter. Church coffee is probably the sweetest cup of coffee I have all week. I may not always like the taste of it, but I don't care. What goes with the coffee makes it oh so special, and I'm not talking about the bagels. The conversation, care, love and concern that flow out of the lips of all those coffee drinkers just infuse this coffee with a flavor that cannot be compared.

I look forward to this wonderful cup of not the best but sweetest cup of coffee each and every week. My heart and soul are filled to the brim, and I take it home with me to give me the best start possible to my week.  "All I need today is a little bit of coffee and whole lot of Jesus."
