Tuesday Hugs-May 4, 2021

Good Morning, my friends! Happy first Tuesday of May 2021! I pray you woke up happy, smiling, and believing that you will have a blessed day.

With this hug, I am saying, “God loves you and He is with you. He will never leave you. No matter what is happening externally, remember, God is in our hearts and He gives us His peace”.

With this hug, I am sending you peace, joy, smiles and a short, simple prayer. Pray this prayer with me and believe that God hears our prayers. Believe that He knows what you need and when you need it.

Dear God, Thank You for this beautiful gift of a new day. We are grateful You woke us up on this first Tuesday of May 2021.

No matter what happens today, we remember that today is a gift from You. You woke you up for a reason and You have a plan for our lives. Not just today, but each and every day.

Lord, some of us are struggling right now. But You know everything about each person praying this prayer. You know each part of our lives that needs healing.

Reach down and touch us all with Your healing hands. We know that Your timing is perfect for all of us. Your timing is never early and never late.

Lord, when we don’t feel You near to us, reassure us that You will never leave us or forsake us. Sometimes we need an answer to our prayers, but don’t receive it.

Help us to remember that Your plan for us is greater than any plan we develop for ourselves. We believe and trust that all our prayers are answered in Your timing.

For anyone suffering with sickness or pain, touch them with Your healing hands and end their pain. Heal anyone suffering with cancer, diabetes, heart disease, liver disease, kidney disease, arthritis, hypertension, lupus and any other illnesses that Your people are suffering with.

Heal us financially. Many of Your people still are not working enough hours to pay the bills, Lord. Abundantly bless them with new, better employment and provide for their families’ needs.

Bring peace to our hearts and homes. Make us all peacemakers, always striving for Your peace, and helping others create and maintain peace for themselves.

We are so thankful for today and each day You give us to live, laugh and love. Most of all, we are thankful that You sent Your Son, Jesus so that our sins are forgiven and we may live eternally.

For everyone reading this and praying this prayer, visit their homes today and leave with them Your blessings of joy and happiness. Let each person know that You are with them.

Take away our worries and anxieties and give us a peace that surpasses all understanding. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Throughout your day, if you need a hug, remember this one. Tuesday Hugs!

Sending you blessings of love and gratitude from Sterrett, Alabama!
