Philippians 2:13
It’s such a big old world, Dear Lord!
The universe staggers me, too.
But I like coffee and the Word
and fellowship before we’re through.
I take my friend to coffee shops.
We sip and sometimes talk.
The artistry of foam on top
takes breath and then takes stock.
What joy it is to love my Joe!
You love the moments, too, I think.
You share these loves? I’d like to know,
that we might keep our hearts in sync.
He makes the greater things and small.
He molds my heart to hear His call.
The things I love, He loves them, too,
because He loved them first. It’s true.
The Lord is working in my heart
to want to do His will.
He works my works right from the start
to give my heart His thrill.
The molding process is complete.
Like Him I’m made and he in me.
His will for me is lastly sweet.
His hope lives through my eyes to see.
So, coffee is a daily joy.
I sit and sip with Jesus near.
The fellowship we there enjoy
shows friendship, that is fully dear.
