Encouragement is critical

Phil 2:25-30
Encouragement is critical. It is NOT optional. Research shows that more criticism is given out than encouragement.

Heb 10:19-25
As a church, we come together not only to hear and be filled up, but to encourage one another in the pews, in the lobby.

Prov 11:25
Sounds like sowing and reaping. When you refresh others you yourself will be refreshed. When we encourage one another we build up and we put courage into another.

Acts 4:35-36
An encourager is likely also generous.

You can help someone experience Victory in their life by encouraging them.

Encourage people in who they are. Their identity, as a child of God. That's the base. Also encourage them in their purpose, their faith.

Tip: Try to catch people doing something right or well. Then encourage away!

Today

Today David my brother in law who is visiting us for the summer, found a ticket on the train to Chicago. Soon after we arrived and left the train, a man came up asking for help in buying a ticket for the train. David had one! Praise God that this you g man now had this ticket, as God provides opportnities like this to impact the world in a positive way. Mom Reyes, my mom in law, told me a story about a homeless veteran who died outside in the winter months in Alexandria. She said that he was offered help and was off the streets for six months, but after that time he was back homeless. Mom said that the man, Jimmy, may have had trouble with his mind. He may have had trouble keeping a job in his state of mind. That's tragic.

Today at work, I was searching for a solution to a project, regarding calculating of shipping to Canada with Google Checkout, and was browsing in FireFox, with some search results open in a window. I was then about to open up an Internet Explorer window, which had some examples to resolve the issue at hand, though in XML code, which was different than what I use at work, but felt in my hear not to open that window, but to continue searching in FireFox. After continuing to search in FireFox, the next search result I opened included an example to Canada with the code which I use. Weeeeoeoeoeooewoowowowowowowoow owwoowowowo. Obedience to the Lord is woowowowowoowowoeooeooeooewoowo eowoowoeoowowwwowowowo awesome.

Higher Calling: Your purpose

1 Peter 2:9-12 Luke 2:49-50 Jesus understood His purpose at a young age, because He knew who He was. What you do flows out of your identity. The "I must" purpose ... 1) It will determine where you go 2) It will determine who you hang out with 3) It will determine what you say 4) It will determine how you spend your time 5) It will determine how you spend your money
