Let me clarify where the title comes from. I was having a conversation one day about what the title of my first book would be (note the arrogance here - MY FIRST BOOK) and I came up with this title. At the time it's what I was doing fairly regularly, going for a run in the morning then when I got back having some reflective time with God whilst having an espresso... hence having an 'espresso with Jesus.'

Truth
Successful people are not successful just because of how they deal with the good times but how they deal with bad times. We need to face the reality that there will be tough times. Maybe you are facing such a time now. It is in these times that we need to hold onto truth.
Truth is easy when things are good. Truth ultimately brings freedom and a fulfilled life, but it may be a bumpy ride along the way. Don’t give up on doing the right thing just because it has become hard. This will always happen, in fact it is the way of truth, but truth will always prevail.
At one second past midnight, ‘the darkest hour’, it is indeed a new day. King David in the Psalms writes more about these times than any other man. David was a man who knew great success but also great failure but he ultimately held onto truth. Even with his track record the bible still declares that he was a man after God’s own heart.
If David teaches us anything it is that life is not about being perfect but about giving it your best shot and if you fail dust yourself down get up and try again.
