Be The Coffee Bean

The world can feel like it’s boiling, and it’s easy to wake up already bracing for the next problem. I start the day with a short story that puts a surprising mirror in front of us: a father boils three pots of water and drops in a potato, an egg, and coffee. They all face the same heat, but they don’t all come out the same, and the difference says a lot about stress, resilience, and what we’re letting shape us. We talk about how adversity can soften you until you feel worn down, or harden you until you feel shut off. Then we lean into the better option: becoming like the coffee bean that changes the water around it. That’s the turning point of this five-minute morning devotional, because it moves from “what’s happening to me” to “what’s happening in me.” If you’ve felt confused, angry, or overwhelmed lately, you’ll hear a simple way to reset your mindset and your faith before the day gets away from you. We would love to hear your comments.
