Book Synopsis Inspiration Coffee and Wisdom Tea by : Peter G Vu
Download or read book Inspiration Coffee and Wisdom Tea written by Peter G Vu and published by Aega Design Publishing Limited. This book was released on 2021-05-18 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book Inspiration Coffee & Wisdom Tea: Daily Delight at the Divine Coffeehouse was written to inspire and encourage you with uplifting and wise messages of worldwide well-known people. Every morning, we wake ourselves up with a cup of coffee or a latte, with their intoxicating aroma, to help push us along with our daily tasks. In the middle of the day, we might pick up a cup of tea to calm our nerves down and help us finish up our day. As we go through this daily routine and rely on those external stimulants to get us through our day, I imagine how much more our spirit might need encouragement to stay focused and get inspired each day. That is how I have come up with the concept of having two sayings each day for this book. One is to inspire us, like coffee or latte, in the morning, while another, like tea, is to give us some wisdom to help us face our daily decisions with confidence. I give context and a short interpretation of each saying before wrapping it into a small package with a bow either called In-Flavor (Inspiration Flavor) or Wi-Flavor (Wisdom Flavor). Then I help mix that flavor and turn it into Inspiration Coffee or Wisdom Tea for you to enjoy each day. Like our daily coffee and tea, I try to keep the two daily sayings and their reflections short and sweet. This book is designed to give us a quick spiritual boost as we try to run from one task to another in our busy schedule. Although the short-term goal of this book is to help us get through each day with joy and purpose, its long-term focus is to fine-tune our characters and make us better people at home, at work, at our worshipping place, in the neighborhood, and in other places. About the Author My name is Rev. Peter G. Vu, and I have served as a Catholic priest of the Diocese of Grand Rapids, Michigan for 20 years. I was born in Saigon City (currently Ho Chi Minh City), Viet Nam. I was a young boy when the Viet Nam War ended. I witnessed the war and the end of it with great horror and deep appreciation for peace. I grew up with the Communist government system and endured significant hardships for more than a decade. What helped me and many of my countrymen tremendously during those dark days was our faith and prayers. Hence, my love for Prayers and Meditations blossomed. Also, I was able to learn and exchange new ideas for Prayers and Meditations with many of my Buddhist friends. We got along quite well despite our different faith traditions. After high school, I escaped by boat and came to the United States of America to begin my seminary training. I attended one year of high school here in the USA (Union High School in Grand Rapids, Michigan) to learn the language and new culture. I attended Aquinas College in Grand Rapids, Michigan for two years while staying at Christopher House Seminary. Then, the Seminary sent me to attend my last two years of college at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota. I graduated with a double major: Mathematics and Philosophy. I then attended graduate school at the University of St. Mary of the Lake and Mundelein Seminary in Chicago, Illinois for five years. I graduated and was ordained with the Master's Degree of Divinity (MDiv) and the Sacred Theology Baccalaureate (STB).

Book excerpt: There are times that we need some answers to the problems that arise in our lives and we need those answers right away. Wisdom Tea was born out of those situations that accrued in my own life. Life comes with a lot of twist and turns as well as detours that you may encounter on a daily basis and Wisdom Tea can help you look at your situation on a different level. I’ve come to realize that people, places, and things can have lasting effects on your life; if you don’t look to God first for the answers you so desperately need, you can become stuck and never find your way out. Wisdom Tea gives you analogies and earthly situations with a heavenly direction to help you in the victories in your life. Its titles are catchy, with food for thought attached. God wants you to be blessed and move forward toward the destiny that he has in store for you and your family. What better way to know how to get there than by exercising the wisdom he so graciously wants to give to us; all we have to do is ask. God has blessed me with a gift to look at life from different perspectives by applying analogies to my situations, a gift that has helped me tremendously in receiving the victories in my life. By reading Wisdom Tea on a daily basis and writing down your thoughts on the journal pages provided for you in each chapter, you may gain an understanding of your situation and see how God can bring you into your victories.
