Better than coffee... really?


I love coffee!!!  It is a necessity in the morning!!!  Somehow, I am not quite right until I have had a couple of cups.  What could possibly be better than a cup of that wonderful concoction?  Well, how about coffee served in a cup made out of a frosted cookie?  Delicious, enticing, scrumptious, marvelous and exciting are but a few of the words that come to mind.  Having coffee like this would be like receiving blessings upon blessings.  Which reminds me of one of the best known passages in all of scripture... 

Psalms, Chapter 23

 1  Yahweh is my shepherd:
I shall lack nothing.
  2 He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
  3 He restores my soul.
He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
  4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me.
Your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
  5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil.
My cup runs over.
  6 Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever.


The God of Heaven blesses those who follow him.  He loves us and cares for us far more than we could ever imagine. I especially like the last part of verse five because it reminds me of wonderful coffee; a second cup, maybe even a third, given to me in a way that makes it even more desirable, a cookie container.  Wonderful are the blessings of God!!! If God gives us blessings like this, can you possibly imagine what dessert would be like?????
