THE WORD for Encouragement

Do you know someone who could use a kind word, an uplifting reminder or a verbal hug?  Is it you?  I know I do!  Every day, please.  God's WORD is filled with those reminders.  It's amazing how a biblical truth spoken into your life by the reading of the Bible, or by the lips of a dear friend, can give a boost to your faith.  I've been encouraged a lot lately and I must say I am glad to get it.  I needed it a lot.   Now I want to share it.  Share the love!  I'm going to be sending some encouraging words to some friends and family in a fun and cheap way.  Here's how:

 THE WORD in a mini frame.  Yes, you are right, a framed verse is not an original idea.  But I just wanted to pass on a reminder that we CAN take the time to do something special to show the people we love that we care about them.  The frames were $1 and I printed out the verses from my computer and did a little cutting.  It's something super easy and fast but it's nice looking and fun.  As I made them I said a prayer for the person who will be receiving them.  The verses I choose were ones I felt especially drawn to for them.  I hope that they will feel encouraged, special and loved.

 Having a scripture setting out at home is a good way to keep our minds on the things of God.  

(I think I should have scripture wall paper.  Does anyone know where to get that?) 

I put this one beside my bed in hopes that it would turn my mind toward things above at the start of my day.

How do you encourage those you love?
