Wednesday Hugs-February 22, 2023

It’s our favorite middle day, my friends. Good Morning and Happy Wednesday. It’s our fourth and final Wednesday of February 2023 and we are blessed because we woke up to see this new day.

These mid-week hugs help you let go of any stress that you’ve had in the beginning of the week and it renews you for the rest of the week. So, I pray you can reach out and grab one of these hugs.

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

Dear God, Thank You for another beautiful day. We are thankful that You woke us up on this beautiful, last Wednesday of February 2023. You’ve brought us through another night safely and we are so thankful.

No matter what happens today, we are going to remember that our day is blessed simply because we woke up.

Some of us are going through hard times, Lord. We need You to restore us and make us whole again.

Heal everyone who is sick and suffering and restore good, complete health to their bodies. Remove our pains and replace worry with Your peace and calm.

Touch us with Your healing hands and remove cancer, diabetes, heart disease, liver disease, kidney disease, lung disease, arthritis, lupus, hypertension, and any other illnesses we are struggling with.

And, Lord, please touch the family members who are caring for their loved ones. Give them strength and endurance to keep going, to find joy in their day and to feel refreshed and renewed.

Thank You, Lord, for making a way for us. Thank You for all the jobs and opportunities You are providing to us. Thank You for keeping our families safe and whole.

May we all realize that You love us all and You want us all to be happy and healthy. Help us to remember that You will never leave us or forsake us.

Lord, we need You more than ever. We need You in every part of our lives. We need You at home, in our workplaces, in our public spaces, in our schools and everywhere else.

I don’t want to be in this world without You, Lord. You stand between us and things that are not good for us. You stand between us and chaos and You stand between us and worry.

We thank You for never leaving us. We thank You for always helping us, for always leading and guiding us, and for always forgiving us. We thank You for sending Your Son, Jesus Christ, so that our sins are forgiven and we may live eternally.

In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

If you get to a place today where you need a hug, imagine this big, caring hug that I am sending to you! Wednesday Hugs!

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