Tuesday Hugs

Good Morning, My Friends!  Happy Tuesday! I am sending Tuesday hugs your way. Believe that your day is going to be a blessed and positive one. Let your first thoughts be of gratitude and positivity. Your early morning, positive thoughts will impact your whole day—in a very good way.

Sometimes it can be hard to find the positive in your life. You may be struggling. You may have a loved one who has a scary health diagnosis. You may be struggling with finances. You may be worried about a child who is headed down the wrong path. There are many things in life that cause us to worry. But what has worry ever helped?

You’ve heard people say that “worry is a total waste of time”. And I know each time you hear that, you say to yourself, “that is so true”. So why do we worry? Because we are human. We automatically start to worry because we are trying to control the situation instead of giving it to God.

Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow. It empties today of its strength.

The only thing worry does for us is steal our joy. It steals our happiness and our ability to concentrate on the “here and now”. If we are worried, we can only focus on the issue that is worrying us and we can’t live in the moment.

But God doesn’t want us to worry. He wants us to put complete and total trust in Him. When we do that, we don’t worry.

With this hug, I am sending you a smile and a prayer that you are released from all worry. That you’ll have new blessings that you didn’t have yesterday and that you’ll have peace in your heart and soul.

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need and thank him for all he has done. ~Philippians 4:6.

As you go about your day, remember this big, caring hug. Let it remind you that God loves you and wants you to be worry-free. Tuesday Hugs!

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