For those of you who want to read my intended post of 10 Benefits of Hugs, I'll give you the link to it. I didn't think it was an appropriate message just now, with the virus threat, and cautions of getting too close to others.
Let's pray-
"Father-God, I thank You for inviting me into the throne room of grace where I can receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. I have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus, by the new and living way that He opened for me through the curtain, and since I have a great priest over the house of God, I draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with my heart sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and my body washed with pure water. I hold fast the confession of my hope without wavering, for You have promised, and You are faithful. With the help of the Holy Spirit I will consider how to stir up others to love and good works. I am glad to meet together with my brothers and sisters to encourage them and receive encouragement, all the more as I see the Day drawing near." Germine Copeland

Today's quote-
~ Gwen Smith- "When complicated circumstances and challenges invade my days, I want my first response to be unshakable confidence - because I remember that the God of Angel Armies is on my side.
When you and I do this, when we speak to God as our Fortress, as our rock, as our Deliverer, as our shield, as our Help in times of need, He hears and steps in with divine strength that empowers us."

Words of wisdom-
~ Did you know that Jesus wants you to love yourself as well as Him and others? How we treat ourselves, reflects how we treat others. We're all loved by God, and His desire is that we love others and ourselves, leaving off being critical, negative or demanding.

Jane Ault- "I visited my doctor this week. She said, 'You are depressed.' I tried to deny it but after honestly answering the questions she confronted me with, I agreed with her. Amazingly, I am not worried about this depression. I’ve gone through enough dark valleys to know sunshine awaits on the other side. God has always given me the strength and resources I’ve needed to recover. I know what to do. I do not lack hope . . ."
