National Day of Encouragement

Good Afternoon Everyone,

Well today is the National Day of Encouragement. This is the one day out of the year that we as Americans are asked to go out of our way to encourage others. While I appreciate the idea that is being promoted of encouraging others I wonder why it has to be confined to one day.

It seems to me that Jesus looked at everyday as the Day of Encouragement. When he healed the sick, or told people that they did not have to continue in sin and when he gave his life on the cross I find all those things to be very encouraging.

So here is where I stand on the National Day of Encouragement. I say go for it be encouraging and lift someones spirits today. There is nothing wrong with recognizing this day as a day to encourage but my challenge to you is to make everyday a day of encouragement. Make the National Day of Encouragement a day to highlight what you are already doing. I hope I have been an encouragement to you today and I hope you are all blessed.

Be Strong and Courageous,
Paul
