"But my mouth would encourage you; comfort from my lips would bring you relief." Job 16:5
Encouragement is one of God's most joyous art forms. He supplies us with the raw materials and invites us to create, build and shape his hope in lives of those around us.
Some people combine a helping hand with a word of praise and produce a grateful heart. Others, by mixing laughter and love, are able to paint new sparkle in dulling eyes. Belief and support build self-esteem. Persistent prayer composes a song of hope; and tenderness and warm embraces fashion a friend.
However we combine the elements of encouragement, one thing we're sure to crate is joy - for others, for ourselves and for our Lord.
