Title: Encouraging One Another

“So encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.” 1 Timothy 5:11-12 (NIV)

Encouraging others is like spreading kindness and positivity. It’s like spreading sunshine on a cloudy day. It’s like being a cheerleader for the people in your life, helping them see their own strengths and potential. Today, we’ll discover how building each other up and being a source of inspiration can bring happiness to everyone, just like a burst of sunshine brightens up the day.

Think about a time when someone told you, ‘You’re doing great!’ or ‘I believe in you!’ How did it make you feel? Encouraging one another is like being a cheerleader for the people you care about. It’s about making them feel strong and confident.

Encouraging others means saying kind words and being there for your friends and family. It’s like telling your friend, ‘You can do it!’ when they face a challenge or giving them a high-five when they achieve something. Learn to motivate your loved ones to believe in themselves and be their best, while trusting God to handle the things they can’t.

So, today, think about someone you care about. How can you encourage them and make them feel special and confident? Remember, being a hero of encouragement spreads happiness to everyone around you!

You’ve learned how to be a hero of encouragement, spreading joy and confidence to those around you. Keep being a cheerleader for your friends and family, making their lives better. By motivating and inspiring others, you’re creating a world full of positivity and support.

Thought for Reflection:
Heroes in stories inspire others with their words and actions. Who in your life needs encouragement and support? Think about how you can be a hero of encouragement, spreading positivity and confidence.

Song:
I’ve got peace like a river,
I’ve got peace like a river,
I’ve got peace like a river in my soul.
I’ve got peace like a river,
I’ve got peace like a river,
I’ve got peace like a river in my soul.

Prayer:
Dear God, we come before you with a desire to be Your special agents of encouragement. Help us to spread positivity and confidence to those around us. May our words and actions inspire and uplift our friends and family. We want to make a positive impact, supporting and motivating others to believe in themselves and do what is right. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
