Hearing the sounds of voices bickering
Refusing to listen to reason
And rising higher and higher
To a fevered pitch, filled with anger�
God is listening with tears in His eyes
And He needs a hug.

Hearing the boom of guns being fired
Witnessing violence in the streets
Becoming commonplace, coming day after day
Causing pain and suffering with each attack�
God is listening with tears in His eyes
And He needs a hug.

Hearing the bombs destroying all in their path
Knowing innocent victims are in pain
Feeling hatred increasing day by day
Seeing His World being destroyed�
God is watching with tears in His eyes
And He needs a hug.

Seeing waste and greed taking over
Impacting the beauty of His World
Showing no regard for the quality of life
Now or for future generations�
God is watching with tears in His eyes
And He needs a hug.

When someone cares enough to love
And loves enough to DO something
To protect God's World and spread His Word
And follow His teaching�
God smiles with tears of joy in His eyes
And He feels that He's been hugged.

"When someone cares enough to love
And loves enough to DO something
To protect God's World and spread His Word
And follow His teaching…
God smiles with tears of joy in His eyes
And He feels that He's been hugged."

Peggy, this brought tears to my eyes. I have never heard this said before, that God needs a hug. Of course He does. This is inspired. Thank you. Thomas --- P.S. Please contact me on Private Messenger concerning this one. Thanks.

Oh yes Peggy, I totally agree, "sometimes God needs a Hug!" When He looks at you and all that you do, I am sure that He feels like He has been hugged. When He looks at His world so torn and filled with pain, I am sure that His eyes have to tear up, and He fills like He needs a hug. May we all do our part in giving God a great big hug! I love you, Sharon

When we live our lives in love and compassion, our lives become a love song to Him. I send my hug to you, because He is in you, and when we hug each other,we are hugging Him...and I know He smiles. (((PEGGY))))
