Five Minute Friday

Encouragement

What encourages you?
Keeps you from giving up?
Gives you courage?

A whisper in the dark of sorrow
"I know. I cry with you. "

A bracing challenge in the sunshine of confidence
"Be all you can be!"

A nameless shout in the 11th hour of exhaustion
"You can do it! Keep going!"

Friendly bullying in the face of lethargy
"Come on with me; let's do it together. "

I know each one
Different times
Different people
Each one
Jesus with skin on for me.
God is FOR me!
