Hugs


I went into "Bodyshop" looking for a face wash cream, the shop keeper approached me as to help me to find what I needed. We strike up a conversation. A pleasant one that led us to talk about our belief in Jesus. As  we learn from the Bible, For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, and whoever believes in Him will have everlasting life. So I shared that with her, and asked if she knew she would go Heaven through her belief in Jesus, and how she came to know it if her answer was yes. She told me that because her parents told her so. On the way home the meeting with the girl, Linda was her name still lingered in my mind and another verse in the Bible that I have memorized came to mind and revealed its meaning "Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you shall be saved and thy house", of what Linda said. Because of her parents' belief, and they told her about Jesus and eternal life, she believes it, that's how the verse applies in this case, I figured.
Jesus said,  I am the way, the truth and the Life, no man came to the Father but by Me, I quoted it to her, and the response was that I got was a warm hug from Linda. And we hugged more afterwards, nice!
 Heaven and Hug, there must be plenty of it there, even now we get plenty of it with people we love, even with a new found friend who I shared the good news with. Give someone a hug today and you will get at least one back if it's not two!
