Encouragement

Living in Christ is a joy and a challenge among many facets of our relationship. In the course of the journey, we will undoubtedly face moments and situations where we are misunderstood or even wrong. Even out of a pure heart these occurrences have the potential to drain our joy and dissipate our strength. It happens.

It's at these times when the Lord will send to us an agent of encouragement to enable us to look up to Him with renewed hope and courage. It can be a great opportunity when we recognize it as God's gift and provision for us. He never fails.

Perhaps He is leading you to be an agent of encouragement. Look for the possibilities and allow yourself to be used by God in this constructive way. I actually believe that a day won't pass without the inspiration of God towards you to do this. You're perfect for the task. Hallelujah!

Nehemiah 8:10 (NIV)
10 "... This day is sacred to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the LORD is your strength."
