There are many things in this life that discourage us. If we were to take the time, we could easily make a list of people, situations and things that bring us down. As Christians, we should not dwell upon those things that discourage but encourage. In fact, we should seek to encourage others as often as we spend time with others. In The Holy Bible, there are many scriptural references that speak of hope, encouragement and comfort. What is your favorite encouraging scripture? Why not commit it to memory: write it on a piece of paper and keep in your wallet, post it on your refrigerator, or place it in your cell phone. If you fill your environment with encouraging words and reminders, it will bring spiritual healing to your being and strength for your day. Just like King David in 1 Samuel 30:6 encourage yourself in The LORD your God.
