All around us are discouraged people - perhaps even in our homes. Today, let's look for ways to give them that needed encouragement!
True, everyone who deserves our praise should be recognized, but without flattery. As Book of Proverbs 12:25 says that..."heaviness in the heart of man weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up." And we should never say that something is good when it's otherwise. Yet no matter how imperfect a person may seem or how poorly he performs, we can always find something good to praise him.
A kindly word that was lightly spoken may stilled the pain of a heart that was nearly broken. So, if you see someone who need more encouragement give him one of yours!
