God's Coffee A group of schoolmates who have left school for several years, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into 1 about stress in work and life. Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and 2 with a large pot of coffee and a variety of cups-porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some graceful-telling them to 3 themselves to the coffee. When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said. " 4 you noticed, 5 the nice looking expensive cups were 6 , leaving behind the 7 and cheap ones. 8 it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the 9 of your problems and stress. Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases 10 hides what we drink. What all of you 11 wanted was coffee, not the cup, 12 you consciously 13 the best cups... And then you began 14 each other's cups. Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money, and 15 in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the 16 of life we live. Sometimes, by 17 only on the cup, we 18 to enjoy the coffee God has provided us." God brews the coffee, not the cups... Enjoy your coffee! "The 19 people don't have the best of everything. They just 20 the best of everything." Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God. | ||||
