Whom Can You Encourage Today?
Adapted from Quiet Times with God
Therefore encourage and comfort one another and build up one another, just as you are doing.
People love to be blessed and encouraged. It can completely change someone’s entire day. Heartfelt compliments help people feel and perform better, while faultfinding makes them perform worse.
Choose someone today whom you would like to bless and begin to encourage them. Tell them how much you value them, how special they are to the Lord, and how thankful you are for them. I believe you will be amazed at the results.
What frequently happens is that the person being encouraged is so grateful for the encouragement, they reciprocate with kindness and appreciation. They are doing it because they see the example you are modeling, and they return the favor. Better yet, they will turn around and look for other people to encourage, too.
Prayer of the Day: Lord, make me an encourager today. Help my words bless, uplift, and remind others how valuable they are to You. Let kindness flow through me.
