“If you call a dog a bad name, he’ll live up to it.” American South proverb
I live in a culture where it is never good enough. They can, will and do find any reason to criticize every little thing about you. Consequently their children grow up feeling very insecure.
When I was a teacher I was always encouraging with the children and never criticized them. They loved and respected their teacher. Their confidence grew in leaps and bounds.
It is easy to tear down but more rewarding to build up. Joseph Anthony Green
Which one are you?
Would people say you are a Cindy Criticizer or are you a Edward Encourager?
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing 1 Thessalonians 5:10-12 New International Version
Is that not the truth?
Prayer: Please Jehovah Elohim (God our creator) instill in my heart and mind to always be an encourager not a destroyer. I humble ask this in the name of the greatest encourager Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sweet sunshine of Jesus' precious love bless you today and every day
