Encourage Others and Yourself

Doesn't it feel good to receive encouragement from others? Like, "great job, and keep up the good work."  Instead of receiving the kind words, be the giver of them.  

Today, shower encouragement to those around you. It can be a simple text, a 'thank you' email, or even a gift. If, and when you don't receive encouragement in your walk, learn to encourage yourself by finding your strength in the Lord. 

1 Samuel 30:6, "David was greatly distressed because the men were talking of stoning him; each one was bitter in spirit because of his sons and daughters. But David found strength in the Lord his God."
