Here’s a neat thought for today from Reading for Today:

“When [Barnabas] arrived …, he was filled with joy, and he encouraged the believers to stay true to the Lord.” Acts 11:23 NLT

Encouragers don’t look for honours, but the results of their work are unmistakable. What oxygen does for the body, encouragement does for the soul. It inspires us to persevere when it would be easier to just quit.

Are you an oxygenator of the soul? Determine today to find ways to encourage others, you’ll be amazed at how encouraging it will be to yourself.
