Arise and Abide

It's easy to leave abiding as something just for the morning, But the goal is to live with the awareness of Him throughout the day. Abiding can be as simple as just actively keeping aware of Him throughout the day. Prayers, remembering to praise Him and be thankful as we go through daily tasks. Where we go, He comes Too because He's in us.. But all starts with that morning connection and creating that base to return to throughout the challenges the day brings. The prayer and coffee. The connection.

 Arise and Abide is for those first moments. At first inhale the scent of warm milk chocolate with thick melted caramel wrapped around it. with a lively scent of sweet ripe fruit. On first sip, there is a bright and ripe fruit flavor that greets you. Wild heirloom beans bring the flavor into a complex berry like tang. The lingering taste is a creamy milk chocolate and sweet caramel smoothness. Nothing sharp. Nothing rushed. Just steady. From the first sip to the last. Some mornings abiding looks like sitting with a cup for ten minutes. Other times, it looks like carrying that warmth into a day that never asked permission to take over. Either way, the invitation is still the same; Arise and Stay. 

"Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me....As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love." John 15:4,9
