Stephen Ministry - God’s love in Action
Morning Coffee with God
As I sit in my rocking chair and share morning devotionals (4 of them), with my husband, I thought, “I am sharing my morning coffee with God, also.” He is aware of my readings, my thoughts on what I’ve read, and my preparations for the day. When the day seems daunting, it is more difficult to remember that God is always sharing my thoughts, actions, and worries. It can be difficult to “let go and let God” do the worrying. If you would like to have someone listen without trying to “fix” your concerns, and assist you to bring your stresses into focus as you seek resolution, please contact Pastor John or Cathy Van Huystee, the referral coordinators for Stephen Ministry, so that an appropriate referral can be made.
