I have a few people I can count on to encourage me - those who believe in me - even though they know my failures and faults.
- They give me hope that I can do what I've planned.
- My encouragers point out where God has touched my life and made it good.
- They tell me they love me - unconditionally.
- I know my encouragers pray for me. They've even prayed with me.
- When I need a helping hand - someone to come alongside me and support me - they're there.
- If I have a concern or challenge, they're always ready to provide valuable insight & advice.
- My encouragers know me so well, they make me feel valuable - just for being me.
Some of my encouragers provide one or two of these actions. Two of my encouragers provide all seven.
Who encourages you?
Spend time and identify who is in your life that provides encouragement - then thank them, and your God who made them.
