Special Intention


Those who know me know how much I love a good cup of tea! I brew a pot straight after I rise for the day. This ritual is often repeated for morning tea; afternoon tea; with James before we retire for the evening, or any other time of the day when the mood takes me.

I'm not a big fan of tea bags, thanks to my parents and their love for the real thing. I still have my Grandfather's battered tea pot which was once red. The paint has long since peeled away. My favourite wedding present is a beautiful tea pot given to us my James' best man and his wife. You can see that I love tea!

On December 2nd, I decided to begin fasting from tea for an intention which is very close to my heart. I've decided to only have tea first thing in the morning, until my prayer intention comes to pass. I'm hopeful that my fasting will remind me many times a day to pray for my special intention.

I'm not big on fasting, but prayer for special intentions yes! Those cups will sure taste good when you partake again Tricia.
