Being an Encourager

1 Samuel 23:16, 
"And Jonathan Saul’s son arose, and went to David into the wood, and strengthened his hand in God."

Jonathan went to find David and encouraged him to stay strong in his faith in God. I really like this verse because is helps me to encourage other people about staying strong in God.

How important it is to encourage and build up those around us, especially those who look up to you. Words are powerful things and may be used to edify or to tear down and cause destruction. Think before you speak and be sure that every word that you speak builds up and encourages.

Ephesians 4:29,
"Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers."
