Heavenly Father, I praise You this morning and I praise the Holy Spirit that guides me. Lord, having a long discussion with a young brother last night and conversations with others the past couple days, reminded me much of my past and the religious spirit that Christ delivered me from. Lord, much like Barnabas the encourager, I want to be uplifting to our brothers and sisters, our family members, and others we see from day to day. There are those who’ve left us with stinging reminders of their hurtful words often accompanied by painful actions. Gratefully, there are others who have brought us strength and encouragement through their words of affirmation, hope, challenge, and helpful instruction. They remained supportive of us when others gave up. Lord You have sent many mentors my way in which I am grateful. Help us to be numbered among the encouragers as we live in these perilous days where confusion abounds and deceitfulness is rampant. May we encourage others not only by our words but also by our steady, consistent, Christian lifestyle. In the name of Jesus I thank and pray. amen.
