“So speak encouraging words to one another. Build up hope so you’ll all be together in this, no one left out, no one left behind.” 1 Thessalonians 5:11 MSG
Encouragement is vital for every one of us if we’re going to be people of faith who stay the path. There is nothing greater to receive, or more valuable or satisfying to give than words that inspire courage to keep going! I know how much I need to regularly hear those words, to know I am believed in and not alone, that’s why I started sending out texts every morning Monday to Friday to a few people who also needed that same encouragement. It’s now been over ten years since I started this and many more of you have been added to the list (welcome if that’s recently you!) There are plenty of times I’ve felt like stopping and giving up but it only takes the encouragement of the one or two, knowing it makes a difference, to keep going, that’s how encouragement works! So thank you, all those of you who have inspired courage in me, it is fuel to my faith. Let’s be generous with our words and with God’s Word, who can you inspire courage and hope in today? Do it!🙌🏼😊
