I long for your embrace
Every single day
I absolutely love getting hugs. I think one of my favorite people to get hugs from is my dad. Anytime I stop by the house to visit and he's working upstairs, as soon as he hears me moving around downstairs he comes for a hug. I love hearing his office chair zoom backwards from his desk, and then to hear him stumble over the dog laying by his office door. He also doesn't come down the stairs very gracefully - there is a lot of noise as he races down the stairs. I love it. I love the urgency that there sometimes is. As though if he were to wait any longer I would be gone.
I think God is pretty similar. Every time that I start praying, he rushes over to embrace me. He can't wait to see me, to hold me in his arms.
