Friday Hugs

April 17, 2020 By Charity M. Richey-Bentley 31 Comments

Here’s to a beautiful Friday! It’s that skip in your step, extra smiles, more laughter kind of day! I’m sending Happy Friday Hugs your way!

Yes, even if we’re still in lockdown, Friday is special. You may be working from home, you may be home schooling children, and you may be just waiting things out.

No matter what you are doing today, smile, keep trusting God and keep hope alive in your heart. We’re beginning to see light at the end of the tunnel, my friends.

Don’t give up now. We’ve come too far to give up now. God has been with us this whole time and we know for sure that He hasn’t brought us this far just to abandon us.

I’m sending you this Friday hug to bring peace to your heart. It’s to let you know that you are loved and cared for. Never forget that. God loves you and will never leave you.

I also wanted to send a short, simple prayer with this hug. Pray this prayer with me and receive the blessings sent with it.:

Dear God, Thank You for bringing us through the week and to this beautiful Friday. We wouldn’t have made it without You. You’ve protected us, blessed us and given us the strength to keep going.

We are so thankful for Your protection during this pandemic. We have been scared, worried and unsure about our jobs and finances.

We are trusting in You for everything. Restore our jobs, our finances and our ability to start again. Give us Your strength so that we are even stronger than we were before.

Once it is safe to go out, keep us healthy and strong. Give us Your patience to wait until it is safe to go out. And when it is safe, let us feel Your confidence and security.

Be with my family and friends today and let them feel Your presence. Make our Friday a beautiful start to a beautiful weekend. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Even though I can’t physically be with you all, I still want to send you out a Friday hug to let you know that God loves you and I love you too. Friday Hugs!

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

Charity M. Richey-Bentley

    The Australian Prime Scott Morrison has said that some restrictions maybe lifted in 4 weeks. I sure hope so. I’m so sick of this as I’m sure a lot of other people are as well.

    Thank you for your consistent encouragement. Praise be to God!
    I have been reposting your hugs, because I believe as Christian’s we should give hugs even if it’s virtual ones. God isn’t limited by anything. Thank you for sharing His kind of love!

    My prayers for the science to find something that will give everyone protection from this virus so we will be able to return to the life we had.
    That is my daily prayer 🙏🏻🙏🏻

    I’m glad that God is with us and will never forsake us, and I hope all of this will be all over soon, cause it’s not God controlling us right now, this is Satan work that we’re living through right now, and I can’t wait for God to take control again, Satan has no idea how to run things, and a lot of people are miserable right now because of this, and that’s how Satan wants it. Please God take control over us again, we need your help in guiding us through this life as always, Amen.
