Everyone needs encouragement. And everyone who receives encouragement is changed by it. Mark Twain said,
'One compliment can keep me going for a whole month'. Encouragement's impact can be profound on our lives:
- A word of encouragement from a teacher can change his/her life.
- A word of encouragement from a spouse can save a marriage.
- A word of encouragement from a leader can inspire a person to reach their potential.
Zig Ziglar says,
'You never know when a moment and a few words can have an impact on a life'. To encourage others is to help them gain courage they might not otherwise possess -
courage to face the day, to do what's right, to take risks, to make a difference! With that kind of courage, people can impact their world for Jesus.
- If you're a parent, you have a responsibility to encourage your family.
- If you're a leader, the effectiveness of your team increases in proportion to the encouragement you give the people you lead.
- As a friend, you have the privilege of sharing encouraging words to help your friend persevere through the hard times.
Never forget: Encouragement changes everything! Create an environment where people can become their best!!
BLESSINGS!
