What is a fellow supposed to do? I stopped at my favorite coffee shop simply to buy some ground coffee to take home only to find out it is closed except for calling ahead to order. This seems a bit extreme to me. They have gone back to following 2020 COVID protocols without any mandate from the city.
This is an emergency situation of perhaps catastrophic proportions. The ripple effects of this will run through the city and perhaps the universe.
Can you imagine your friendly fellow blogger not being able to hang out at his favorite coffee shop? Say it isn’t so.
This messes up my whole personal universe. The coffee shop is next to the organic/natural foods store I like to go to for produce and to get nachos. It is also only a five minute drive from the school I teach in during the day.
Fortunately for us, God never closes up access to him for prayer. We can come to him anytime. 1 Thessalonians 5 says:
Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
If we are told to pray continually, it means God is always listening. He never closes down the prayer line to him
Thank you for reading. God Bless.
Will you have to look for a new coffee shop?
That would be like traveling in an alternate universe 🙂
That is an emergency for you 🙂
A huge emergency
This emergency for you, is an opportunity to find a new coffee shop and new customers and staff with which to interact. New opportunities and adventures!!!
alas perhaps
I really dont know what is going on at the moment. Fear seems to have gripped the world.
Yes it has
Oh dear me, Matt!! What is this world coming to? 🤦♀️ How could they go and mess up the order of the universe? My deepest sympathies to you, my friend! I sure hope you can get your coffee break in somehow or other! While you wait on that to unfold, here’s another virtual cup sent your way. ☕️Maybe that will hold you over until then.
Thanks for the humor. I enjoyed the chuckle today. 😆👏🏼
Thanks for the virtual cup. I am out of sorts. What is a boy to do when his coffee shop is closed. lol
😆 You are welcome…You just may have to bring the coffee shop to you. Buy a fancy coffee maker. 🙃🙂🙃
yes but who will I tell my brilliant jokes to?
You are right….you are indeed in dire straits…. What are ya going to do?!!😱
I don’t know. It is truly catastrophic
It seems more and more places are closed because they don’t have employees to work. God Bless!
Oh no! Your 2nd office is closed.😳 The universe is so large the ripple effect may not be felt by some. But the cosmos has been disturbed, none the less. Here in my locale, some shops are closing temporarily because they can’t provide enough staff to run the place. Even with a five day isolation after a positive covid test it’s hard to field a team.
I think the ripple effect will reach perhaps at least to Neptune
I hope your coffee shop reopens up for walk in soon! Love this post, praying always my brother!
Thank you little sister. How are you?
I am doing well brother! Thank you so much for asking ! 😊
You could get coffee at a grocery store?!
Matt’s a bachelor, Barb. He wants his coffee hot, and ready made.😃
He said he was there to buy a bag of coffee…right?
Or did I read it wrong ?
I will provide the ultimate clarification 🙂
Yes, I love to get a cup of hot coffee at the coffee shop. I also buy a bag of ground coffee. However, I do not buy coffee from the store for two reasons; 1- it is not good enough quality for a coffee purist like myself, 2- the coffee from the coffee shop I go to is Fair Trade coffee meaning no child labor involved.
My husband is a black coffee purist like you. There will never be “Folger’s
* “Folgers in our house”
Your husband is wise 🙂
I spoke too quickly.
😉
The curtain was torn when Jesus died. Now we can approach the throne of grace with confidence EVERY MINUTE, EVERY DAY. Without shame or fatigue!
Thanks for the reminder. Love you
