Some people hug better than other people. Sometimes it feels like you’re hugging a 2 x 4, and other times it’s so soft and cushy it almost feels like you can’t breathe. Great aunts hug that way! Did you know God loves to give hugs? He does! How does He do that? Theresa Ingram answers that question in this program.

Main Points

God is preparing a home for me. - John 14:1-3

What is my home like? - Revelation 21-22:5

How can I live with the awareness each day that I am "Heaven bound"?

  • Faith is being sure and certain about unseen hopes and realities.
  • Faith views things through spiritual eyes and perceives things invisible to the natural eye; believing when you can’t see the answer.
  • Faith is not based on feelings; faith trusts God in spite of how you feel.
  • Faith is not an evidence of outward circumstances. The outward circumstances may look impossible, but faith trusts in God in spite of how things look.
  • Faith is not something that acts automatically; it’s not something that acts magically-not like a thermostat that automatically turns on and off.
  • Faith is an activity; it has to be exercised. It does not come into operation by itself; you have to put it into operation. You put it into operation as you walk in obedience to God no matter what the circumstances look like.
