There is a difference between a hug and an embrace. A hug is casual and often forgotten. An embrace is so much deeper. It’s hanging on in love and desperation. It’s an unforgettable exchange between two people that desire the same thing – a deep, long-lasting connection. The grip of an embrace is tighter. It’s longer. It’s felt deep within a person’s soul. That’s why the release of an embrace is that much more noticeable than the release of a hug.
We often I often hug God instead of embrace him. It’s forgettable. It’s casual. But I want to embrace God. I want to go to the grave embracing God. I don’t want there to be any gap between the first embrace and the second embrace when I meet my Savior face to face.
“Worship God in adoring embrace,
Celebrate in trembling awe.” Psalm 2:11(Msg)
Are you hugging God instead of embracing him?
What do you need to do to turn your hug into an embrace?
