Proverbs 27:5 (MSG) A spoken reprimand is better than approval that's never expressed.
Never underestimate the power of words of encouragement – even if they must be administered with some admonition. People need to know they matter. There is a craving we have to be connected to other people. To be ignored or disregarded is often worse than hearing correction, especially when it's correction administered from a place of love. Engage in dialogue with others – especially the lonely ones among you. Take the time to encourage – it may end up encouraging you just as much!
Father, Show me today who You know needs some encouragement. Give me the right words to say at the right time. Let me be Your instrument of blessing to at least one person who needs it each day! I love You! Amen
