SUPPORTING SCRIPTURE
The Christian prayer life can sometimes feel stale. It doesn’t mean your faith is weak, or that you’re doing something wrong—so don’t get hung up on it! It just happens. But if you want to connect with God and don’t know how to pray, or simply don’t feel like praying…then these everyday prayers are for you.
Enjoying Morning Coffee
What kind of coffee brewer are you? Do you have an automatic system that’s ready when you wake up? Do you have a scale, a pour-over setup, and a special grinder? Are you a k-cup aficionado? Or are you more of the, “I don’t care, just give me a cup of coffee as soon as possible” type of person?
Coffee brewing can be a specialized work of art or a necessary step to getting through the day—either way, it’s an invitation to pause and let God meet you where you are. So next time you push the automatic button or take time to weigh your beans and heat water to the perfect temp, join us in meditating on this Scripture and praying this prayer.
“He restores my soul…” (Psalm 23:3a).
A Prayer for Brewing Coffee
Refresher of Souls, you infused creation with things we need for energy, strength, and delight. Thank you for this coffee filled with caffeine and flavor. As I grind these beans, transform me from the inside out. As I brew the grounds, may the aroma surround me with your presence and love. And as I fill my cup and clean up the mess, fill me up and pour me out for the sake of others. Amen.
