Encouragement is Nourishment

When we hear words of adulation, comfort and praise, our hearts are warmed and lifted up. We smile on the inside and are boosted to keep on keeping on. Words are couriers. They are the carriers of emotion and feelings. When the right words are used, coupled with authentic and meaningful tone and intent, it is a moment the receiver welcomes and remembers.

Words of encouragement nourish the soul. They are food to the heart. Carefully selected powerful words can catapult the receiver to keep going, cross the finishing line and achieve the goal especially when disappointment and obstacles have only brought discouragement.

Encouragement is another important medicine for the heart. It stimulates many to do better and excel to unexplored heights, beyond their original goal. The encourager gives the receiver a more objective perspective because they can see even more potential and prospects than the receiver.

Be an encourager. It is another form of love. It says, I care enough about you to do well and even beyond your own vision and expectations so keep going. When you say kind and comforting words to people, it shows you have a heart of peace.
