Everyone of us need to be encouraged on a very regular basis. Especially in the body of Christ, I have come to realize more and more how much we truly need each other. We all at some time or other become discouraged and distraught and struggle with life's difficulties that come our way.
Scripture tells us:
"but exhort one another daily, while it is called "Today,"
lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
"Hebrews 3:13
When we see a brother or sister in need of encouragement, that is the moment to reach out to them and let them know we are there for them. We can take that time to build them up and pray for them and speak words of life to them.
I can't tell you how many times I have experienced a kind word or a gentle touch or a warm smile, a special hug or that phone call at just the right time. It has made all the difference in the world to me to keep going and pressing forward to live for Christ.
Seize that moment and bless that brother and sister when the opportunity arises!
