When the storm comes…. be at Starbucks :)

Contrary to popular belief. this blog is not sponsored by Starbucks.

But it is often written in Starbucks. That’s what happens when you are a gold card member and get free refills and just get the plain ol’ strongest they have coffee. It’s a cheap office. I don’t even have to pay the electricity!

So today hanging out in Cleveland running back and forth from a couple of different meetings about to kill some time before my board meeting tonight and my sister calls me.

She HATES storms.  For good reason.  A big ol scary tornado skipped right over her house in April a few years ago and killed 8 people way to close to her backyard.

So she called to warn me a bad storm was coming and to make sure I was somewhere safe.

So I informed her, if a bad storm was coming I wanted to be in Starbucks. I mean.. sitting right beside the row of windows probably not the best idea, but there is good coffee and a warm inviting atmosphere.

So I came to Starbucks.

And I am sitting here watching a crazy rain windstorm– sitting my yummy delicious Verona.. and thinking of you my friends.

Just wanted to pop by and remind you there is a place way safer then Starbucks in a storm. Way more inviting. Maybe not so good coffee, but provides way way more then that.  Provides peace, rest, His presence in the storm.

Psalms 91 promises us that He who takes refuge in the shelter of the most high will be safe in the shadow of the almighty!

Sometimes the enemy will whisper to your heart or ears.. God isn’t safe. He cannot be trusted.  Don’t run to Him. Run to ______ (fill in the blank here)

Friends, just want to remind you that He is your refuge and strength, an ever present help in trouble (Psalms 46:1)

Run into the shelter of His presence, His peace, His power, His plan ——<<<<< click to tweet
You can even ask Him to provide the coffee
