Encouragement

I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong— that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith.
Romans 1:11-12

A topic that's constantly circulating recently has been encouragement and encouraging fellow believers in Jesus.

There's nothing worse than brothers and sisters causing trouble among themselves, and it is a serious problem within 'churches' all through the ages. It's clearly what the enemy wants, and sometimes we give it to him or even assist him in his plan.

Today, let's lift each other up, even if it isn't someone that's in the church - encourage everyone you talk to today. Let's be people that build up and not bring down, the world is already broken enough - let's change the world starting right now.

In Jesus Name.
