1 Thessalonians 5:11 (NKJV) 11 Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.
It is good to encourage others.
We never know what people are going through in their lives. Sometimes the words we speak to them can make their day and help them get over a hurdle. Sometimes our kind actions can give them strength to keep going on when they wanted to give up.
God tells us to comfort and edify each other. Why?
Because He created us to be a body; many members, with one heart and one purpose. He knew that we could do better as a unit than as many individuals on our own.
Encouraging others doesn’t have to be fancy or complicated. Sometimes it’s as simple as smiling at someone. Sometimes it just means saying hi and letting someone know you care.
Other times, it may require a bit more effort, like maybe lending someone a helping hand with something. Or maybe a visit to the hospital when someone is sick or has had surgery.
And sometimes it might even mean helping someone in other ways, like buying them groceries or something similar.
But God is faithful to show us when people need to be encouraged. We just have to be willing to hear Him and obey 🙂
