Encouraging others is priceless.
Hi, I’m Joni Eareckson Tada. I’ve always admired folks who could easily encourage others with words from the heart. Encouraging others can come naturally to you, too. Isaiah 50:4 says, “The sovereign Lord has given me an instructed tongue, to know the word that sustains the weary. He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being taught.” Oh, friend, God will help you know the right words to sustain those around you, and he’ll teach you who to be on the lookout for – that special friend, co-worker, or family member who needs a boost. Each morning ask God to show you who needs encouragement that day. Folks all around you are facing failure, family problems, and overcrowded schedules, and you can add richness and meaning to their lives. Encouraging others costs no more than a bit of time and effort, yet who can put a price on its value.
