Monday Hugs-June 30, 2025

Good Morning, My Friends! Happy Monday and Happy Week of July 4th! May God bless your day! I hope your day is filled with family, friends, happiness and good times!

Keep trusting in the Lord and believe that He is going to protect us and keep us safe.

Remember why we celebrate July 4th! The cookouts, the get-together’s, and the fireworks are great. But, remember why we celebrate.

I still believe I live in the greatest Country on earth. Yes, we have flaws, imperfections and negativity. But, we also have a lot of good. A whole lot of good.

I am sending you July 4th Week hugs to say, “Happy Week of July 4th. I pray your day is filled with peace and happiness. And I pray you feel the blessings I am sending with your hug”.

I also wanted to pray a short, simple prayer and send it with your hug. Please pray this prayer with me and receive the blessings I am sending with it.

Dear God, Be with us today on this beautiful Monday. Bless us and protect us as we go about our day. Give us beautiful weather, good times with family and friends and peace for our hearts and homes.

Help us all to remember what celebration of July 4th means–we are celebrating and thanking God for our freedom.

No matter what you have going on in your life, no matter what is going on in the world, we are a free people. And that is so important.

Remind us, as we are surrounded by our families, that family celebrating our freedom is possible only because we live in a free Country.

Thank You, Lord, for all the brave service men and women who sacrificed everything and those who still do everything they can to preserve our freedom.

Provide for them and their families and meet all their needs. Make a way for them where there seems to be no way.

May we use today to honor You and reflect Your love. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

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