ISAIAH 50:4 (CEV)
The LORD God gives me
the right words
to encourage the weary.
2 CORINTHIANS 1:4 (CEB)
He’s the one who comforts us in all our trouble so that we can comfort other people who are in every kind of trouble. We offer the same comfort that we ourselves received from God.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
The Lord calls us to offer encouraging, and at times comforting, words.
PRAYER
Gracious God, thank you for continuing to think of us and for sending special people into our lives at just the right time. Forgive me for taking the ministry of encouragement so lightly. Show me someone today who needs encouragement and then give me the right words to say. I'm going to pass along what you have given to me. Amen.
