Tire Change
Check your tires if they are still fit for your vehicle. Check your attitude, does it need replacement? Check your Spirit, does it need a pump of 'new air'? Check your heart, it might have been bald and torn and worn out from excessive 'rough roads' you've been through. Visit your nearest tire shop - Bridgestone or God,the Rock? What is your brand? 

Coffee Cup
It is amazing how the bitterness of coffee is complemented by the sweetness of sugar. Maybe because they allowed to be 'processed' before they finally meet each other. The coffee cherry allowing itself to be roasted and the sugar cane going through fermentation to reach its crystal form. May we be like them, Lord, allowing myself to be crystalized so that I will be ready to meet my roasted coffee :)  

Great patience = Great love
God's love is so BIG I am most of the time so overwhelmed it takes some time before I appreciate it.
Good thing His great patience equates to His great love.  

Iron Ore
Iron Ore is unrefined iron. 
Iron ore; when it hits metal (substances, materials or structures), produces rust and eats up the structure it stuck itself into. 
Iron ore; when treated and burned properly can produce the strongest of steel.
May we be like the burnt and treated iron ore, Lord, allowing You to change us so we can achieve the strongest version of our character even during trying times; not allowing ourselves to be like rust to our brethren. Amen.
  
My children, I have given you all that you need. Use it. With your works, I am glorified; With your love, I am proclaimed.

If people around you seem to be discouraging, they're God-sent challenges. If people around you seem to be supportive, they're God's encouragements.
 A challenge or an encouragement; both for your own benefit.
