Words of Encouragement

(Today is National Day of Encouragement)

DAILY VERSE

Worry weighs a person down; an encouraging word cheers a person up.

Proverbs 12:25

DEVOTION

We can never know what other people are going through. You may be talking about how amazing your job is to someone who’s been unemployed for a long period of time and is having trouble finding a job. To them, these conversations are cutting.

Encouragement, however, can turn someone’s day around. No matter what someone is going through, a word of encouragement can make a massive difference!

Today, no matter how busy you are, take some extra time to encourage someone!

Bradley Hilton has always been a believer; it was in 2000 that he reaffirmed his faith and went all-in for Jesus. He felt a nudge from God to start a men’s group in his church. Influenced by this group he began a regeneration process that changed his life for a more active service for God. He began a newsletter to encourage others. Its growth resulted in a blog, The Daily Dose – Daily inspiration from God’s Word. Bradley and his wife, Michelle, share life together in Texas with their four children and two grandsons.
