Good morning, everybody. I hope you had a restful great weekend. I sure did. I tried a new church this Sunday and really enjoyed it. Very different from what I was used to.

So today is Monday morning coffee devotionals, and I hope you'll join with me. Maybe you've got your Bible with you, but I want to walk with you for the whole week.

Mondays to set a perspective and frame the week with a heart full of gratitude and joy and

expectation of what God's going to do.

And then Wednesdays, a dangerous conversation with my son, James.

Good morning, James, by the way.

Cheers.

You got your cold brew.

I've got my hot.

And then Friday weekly wrapups of all things, by the way. Cheers. You got your cold brew. I've got my hot. And then Friday weekly wrap-ups of all things, politics and culture through a biblical lens so that we can

not just be depressed about the news, but we can actually start making history as the family

of faith and have real takeaways to know what we can do to impact our world around us.

So today's morning devotional thought is,

if you've ever wondered why you get so frustrated with people,

why you find yourself constantly annoyed by other people,

I've got the answer.

I believe. I believe that when we get frustrated and annoyed with other people, it's because we're living for ourselves

rather than living for God. Now, you may have been a little tweaked by me saying that,

and that's good, because I want to get to the root of why we get so frustrated and

annoyed, wouldn't you like to not be frustrated and annoyed anymore?

Okay.

So think about this.
