I really really miss hugging. It like i have to apologize then I want to hug and can’t yet. I have small card drawing of a young girl with her head in God’s lap. – That is what I imagine when hugging God. Lovely post!

Thank you for this interesting post, Lisa. I especially love the line – ‘Our physical touch releases God’s divine touch.’ It’s as if we get to hug God through the way we love others and sometimes that involves getting up close in the lives of others, close enough to offer a loving touch despite the messy busyness of life. May God help me to not be selfish and distracted but to hug Him in that way; I definitely feel His hugs on a regular basis.

This is a wonderful sentiment on how to share God’s love and love Him at the same time. Thanks for sharing-happy to ship by from Crystal’s this AM.

I’m a hugger too although it’s something that’s a little alien to our culture. As my parents got older and their bodies became more fragile, I wanted to hug them more, but it just didn’t feel the same, so I know what you mean about your Dad.
Yes, we can convey the touch of God through our hugs – the physical ones and the emotional ones – telling people that they are loved by the God of unconditional love.

Lisa so beautifully spoken. What wonderful and touching words you spoke of hugging. I paused and reflected on your words. Blessings.

I have a confession: I’m not really a hugger. I haven’t missed hugging all that much during the pandemic…it’s been almost a relief. I feel terrible saying that. However, I do have to say that I’ve found myself excited about resuming some of those things this spring. Maybe it’s not that I don’t like hugs…maybe I just like them from those closest to me. Excuse me while I learn myself here. 😉 I love your imagery around hugging Jesus. And what you said about praising Him here being a hug. Lovely.

I’m not normally that much of a hugger but after so long without being able to hug I miss it more than I ever thought I would. Hopefully there won’t be too much longer to wait.
