CAUTIOUS!!!

          I hit the road yesterday and stopped at my favorite drive through coffee house and asked for my usual:  A 20oz quad mocha.  I order this often enough that the use of the term 20ozquad as a computer passcode would not be prudent!  There I was, yet again, with a familiar morning ritual.  I gingerly received the tall paper cup from the Barrista and requested a sleeve which helped me hang onto the cup without trading fingers.  The steam rising from the cup fogged my glasses.  The first sip of piping liquid bit my tongue.  I tipped the cup again and let a scalding swig roll down my throat with a soothing burn.  I savored the aroma as the steam stung my nostrils.  All was as it should be.  Then, I saw it!  The warning, starkly imprinted on the side of the cup. Caution!  Contents may be hot! I should certainly hope so!  I ordered a hot!  I expected hot!  I desired hot!  I anticipated hot!  Had it not been hot, I would probably have spewed it all over my dashboard!   Apparently, some woman back east somewhere wasn’t expecting the coffee to be hot and burned herself. One highly publicized lawsuit later, and we are all advised to use caution.    But I don’t want to be cautious! I want it flammable!As if to suddenly burst into flames mere seconds after the barrista punches my card! Now, that’s hot! We’ve read the BibleWe know that God ordered hot.He is expecting hot He is desiring hotHe is anticipating hotHe said if we are lukewarm He will spew us all over the dashboard! God wants you Flammable!You’ve asked God to reignite your faithNow don’t be shocked when the Holy God of the universe shows up to kick it up a notch.  Stick around, Baby, things are going to get hot!
