Happy second Saturday of August, my friends! And Happy Weekend! I’m so glad that you found your way here and you can get a hug and pray a prayer with me. I am blessed to be able to do this with you.There’s no doubt that God brought us through this past week and woke us up to see this beautiful weekend. And I am so thankful. Just waking up is enough to give God praise!

Let’s make this an stress-free, drama-free weekend. Don’t let anyone or any situation drag you into their chaos and confusion. Stay in God’s peace. Whenever you are tempted to get involved in drama, chaos or negativity, remember that you and you alone can maintain your peace.

And let everyone know that your space is open only to positive, happy thoughts, words and energy. Keep smiling, keep trusting God and let His peace and calm rule.

I’m sending Saturday hugs your way. This hug is to let you know that God is taking care of you, He’s rearranging things for you and He is working out things in your life.

And I am sending a little prayer with your hug. Please pray this prayer with me and believe every word as we pray them. I know that God hears our prayers.

Even if you can only cry, if you cannot utter one word, God hears your prayers through your tears. He will answer and act in His timing. Be patient.

Dear God, Please bless everyone reading this. We thank you for bringing us through another week and letting us see this beautiful, blessed Saturday and weekend.

We are claiming Heaven’s blessings for our weekend, Lord. We claim happiness, peace, joy and renewed energy. We know that all things are possible with You.

Send Your angels to guard and protect us. Shield us from anyone or anything that would do us harm. Please use anything meant to harm us for our good.

May we be a blessing to others this weekend. May we use Your kindness, compassion and love to give to others and to lead others to You.

Lord, reach down and touch us with Your healing hands and remove cancer, diabetes, heart disease, liver disease, kidney disease, lung disease, arthritis, hypertension, lupus, addiction and all other illnesses we are struggling with.

We also need you to heal our broken hearts. Many of us have lost loved ones and we need You to mend our broken hearts. Hold us close and keep us in Your care.

We need You more than ever. We need you in our homes, our workplaces, our schools, our public spaces, our churches and everywhere in between.

Let only positive people and energy enter our homes. Remove all negativity from our spaces and dispel drama before it finds us. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Whenever you need a hug today, I hope you will remember this one. Saturday Hugs!
