Encourage
12 See to it, brothers, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God. 13 But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness. Hebrews 3:12-13
We can all be hardened by bad circumstances in our lives if we
continue to allow those circumstances to control our feelings. I had an
interesting week where on two different occasions I allowed the
circumstances I was going through to control my feelings. I was the
furthest away from being Christ-like. On one occasion I allowed my anger
to fester and I did not handle myself like I normally would have. The
thing is, I had no reason to act in a negative emotion-filled way and I
should not have allowed the enemy to enter into my path. We all have
those moments where we wish we would have handled things differently,
and said things differently. I received an encouraging note from a
friend this week who reminded me who I was in Christ, and I think we
need those jump starts every now and then to remind us how important we
are to God and others. You all are very important to God and to me, and
I appreciate all of you. Take a moment to encourage someone this week,
and see how it affects your emotions and your walk.
Have a great weekend.
