Yesterday was not particularly the best day. I received some disappointing news. However, when I made the "trek" next door to check the mail, I found one piece of mail (surprisingly it wasn't a bill!) It was a note from a good buddy of mine from preaching school. It was just a single sheet of paper that made a world of difference to my day. Being the dork that I am, I hung it on the fridge so I could be lifted up the rest of the day!
I know it wasn't much for him to do this but it made a huge difference to me. We sometimes get so engulfed by the busy world we live in that we forget how much a simple gesture like sending a piece of mail can do for someone. One small encouragement can go a long way. Have you encouraged someone today? Paul reminds us in 1 Thessalonians 5:11, "Therefore encourage one another and build up one another..."
Today I want to encourage you to put down your phone or get out from behind the computer you are reading this on and encourage someone today. You never know what it might mean to them!!!
Blessings,
Jeremy
