Wild Raspberry Hibiscus Herbal Tea in a Godmother Mug

Today’s holder of brew is my “godmother” mug. I frequently use this mug because it holds a generous 16 ounces.

I prayed these things for my godson today. I prayed them for me as well. 😉

And the message on the mug is meaningful and challenging. The most challenging act is to consistently pray.

I get ideas on what to pray from what I read in each day’s Bible reading.

• I read a Proverb and a Psalm daily. Since today is the 26th I looked at Proverbs 26  to see how I could pray for my godson.
• I then wrote several items on the backside of my mug.
• Because the space is small, I can’t list everything from the Proverb. But I know that next month, I will get the opportunity to read the same chapter and pray other things.

I use a dry erase marker on the mug. And I write the prayer list after I’ve finished drinking as the ink comes off very easily… very easily.

Day 16 (January 26)

Tea of choice today is by Stash: Wild Hibiscus Herbal Tea in my Godmother mug.

I drank the tea hot and plain.

• Since I didn’t care for the Pomegranate Raspberry Green Tea from Day 8, I thought I wouldn’t care for this tea either since this brew also has hibiscus. Wrong. It had a mildly sweet and pleasant taste, Not sharp at all.
• So maybe it wasn’t the hibiscus I didn’t like from Day 8’s tea.
• I can see drinking this occasionally when I want something different.
• I felt it needed a little something so I put in one sugar cube. That made the tea just right. At 9 calories for one cube, my waistline and blood sugar levels will be okay.

Your Turn . . .

• Do you have a mug with words that is meaningful? If yes, why is it meaningful?
• What size mugs do you prefer and why?
• Have you ever thought of using a mug as a place to write a to-do or to-pray list?
