POINT OUT THE POSSIBILITIES

ENCOURAGEMENT CAN LIFT THE MOOD AND REMOVE FRUSTRATION!
1 Thessalonians 5:11 (KJV)
Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

TODAY'S TOPIC - RECOGNIZE POTENTIAL

Encouragement does not mean you have to do the work or obligated to get involved but it can mean to become a person's cheerleader.

Before you do that ask yourself...

• Are you happy for the person's success or envious?
• Are you an encourager or a critic?
• Are you anticipating failure or success?
• Are your words icy or warm?
• Are you formulating your opinions or seeing possibilities?

Read the stories in Acts 9: 26-28, Acts 11:24, Acts 15: 36-39 follow with Colossians 4: 10-11, can you relate it to your own personal circumstances?

Many people point out the problems instead of possibilities

There are many simple ways you can give encouragement.  Let's begin today!

• Make a list of those who could need some encouragement
• List some ways you can encourage or point out the possibilities to them
• Chose one or two people today and point out the possibilities to them

Remember, just listening can be a means of encouragement.  Become someone's cheerleader, and cheer them on to their dream or cause.  Encouragement is also right in line with prophesying - Romans 12: 6-8.  

Hebrews 10:24 (KJV)

And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works

God Bless and Keep The Faith!!
