Mutual Encouragement is a Thing!

Join our conversation!Do you participate in mutual encouragement?Let’s Journey Together and spend a midweek moment with Father. I’m Linda Goldfarb, and I want to encourage and inspire your walk with the Lord. For more encouragement, please visit LindaGoldfarb.com. I’m so glad you’re here. For those who know me, this will not come as a shock; I'm a wordy girl. I admit it. I talk a lot. I recognize silence as a vacancy sign that reads —“Please fill me with words!”As a wordy girl, I use my voice to encourage others. “Have a blessed day.”“How may I pray for you?”“I appreciate you.”“Tell me more, I’m listening.”How do you encourage others?I am often encouraged by individuals who write cards, send emails, make phone calls, and such. How about you? During my Bible study this morning, I read this timely truth from the book of Romans, “For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you— that is, that we may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith, both yours and mine” (1:11-12 ESV).My thoughts gravitated to “that we may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith.” At that moment, I smiled. I have several friends who encourage me with their faith. Friends who, though going through great difficulties, shine with a light that surpasses their circumstances.Friends who share their faith with abandon.Friends who go out of their way to physically help others in need.Friends who take the time to sit and listen.Friends who walk out an others-first lifestyle.How do others encourage you?Father is quick to offer opportunities to encourage others with hope and kindness. How we respond to the opportunity can be a blessing indeed.Let’s journey together.Father, thank You for your truth.Thank You for opening my eyes to the need for kindness in this world. Thank you for touching my heart to reach out in faith and encourage those in need. Help me to take action. Help me to see your children as part of my family. Guide me to live a life bigger than myself. In Jesus’ name. Amen, and amen. HallelujahDo not merely listen to the word and so deceive yourselves; do what it says. James 1:22May YHWH bless you, keep you, and guide you in all you do. Until next time, this is Linda Goldfarb, and I’m so glad we are on this journey together with Father.Staying Real Just Got Easier!Discover Your God-Designed PersonalityFollow Linda Goldfarb on FacebookLeave a comment for Linda and HeatherCheck out Linda's BooksCheck out Heather's Books
