Have You Ever “Practiced” Encouragement?

If you are struggling with something difficult in your life right now, and it seems the weight of the world is on your shoulders. No matter how you are feeling, I encourage you to consider spreading encouragement to whoever you can (this might sound counterproductive to you). Still, it can help you feel connected and purposeful, and you never know whose day you might change with your kind words or actions! It seems that when we do good unto others, it helps us stop feeling sorry for ourselves, and the blessings can begin to flow again. You may think it is counterproductive or senseless, but take my word for it, and give it a try; you have nothing to lose, but everything to gain!

Take a moment to think about those who have encouraged you in the past, and be grateful to God for putting them in your life. Now, in turn, turn it around: think about who YOU can encourage, and give it a try. You will begin to see that the lives of those you help will brighten, and your own life will improve because of your help to others! I have found that to be true in my life, and it will be true in yours, too! It helped me get out of a depression I went through many years ago.

“Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting some on yourself”. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
