I love my coffee mugs. But then, I LOVE my coffee, as my friends and family know. From time to time I go through my cupboards and weed out the mugs. It's tough because I'm emotionally attached to many of them.
Who can discard a mug with a cute penguin on it given to me by a grandchild?
Who can give away a mug bought on a trip to San Francisco many years ago?
And who can eliminate a mug with a just right handle that says, "Morning, Gorgeous"?
These pictured, though, are among my favorites because they remind me to ponder some important concepts of my Christian walk.
- Faith, the root of any belief system, but so vital to my enriched life--on earth and for eternity.
- Joy, that inner peace that can occur even amid the worst of situations.
- Trust, the concept I must continually adopt if I am to walk through my days with the security that God knows, understands, and cares--about both my big issues and my small ones.
Faith, Joy, and Trust. All are concepts the world needs to navigate the tangled messes it has created.
By the way, Hope got broken. Yep, smattered to bits. It's a terrible thing to lose hope. But hey, it's just a coffee mug, not my real hope which is in the salvation of Jesus Christ.
