Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Romans 12:10
I love watching friends give hugs to one another. Mostly females practice this but occasionally you will see two men not too worried what others think and give a bear hug. It is a way to let someone know they are special.
Can you imagine a hug from Jesus?! Now that would be one terrific hug. Pastor Steven Furtick of Elevation Church in Charlotte, NC says his young son after visiting Disneyland said to him “will we really get to see Jesus when we go to Heaven?” After which he followed it with the statement “that is going to be a really long line” since he was thinking of the lines to get on rides at the amusement park he had just visited.
Yes a Jesus hug is going to be nice. Right now you are sort in a sense being hugged by Jesus by your friends who care for you with their love and prayers. You also are the hands and feet of our Savior in the world you occupy daily. Are you ready to give a Jesus’ hug or friendly touch or word to a hurting soul?
PRAYER: I am thankful for friends. I am thankful for arms which some do not have in order to give hugs to others. I am thankful you can use me to give a ‘Jesus hug’ to a person in need. Help prepare my heart to care for others who may be down and hurting. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
