Daily Scripture - Encourage and Build Up - 1 Thessalonians 5:11 (https://www.smartguy.com/) “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up.” - 1 Thessalonians 5:11 Good morning! Jesus’s church flourishes when members lift each other. As you wake, think of three people in your life - friends, family, or church members - who could use encouragement. Write their names on sticky notes and carry them with you. Pray, “Lord, help me speak life into each of these hearts.” Let this resolve shape your journey to church, where shared testimonies and worship unite us. During fellowship, offer genuine compliments - acknowledge someone’s ministry, thank a volunteer, or praise a friend’s faithfulness. After the service, send a quick text or card highlighting a strength you admire in them. Throughout the day, look for small affirmations - a word of praise, a gesture of appreciation - to build others up. When doubt tempts you to remain silent - choose encouragement instead. Today, be an architect of faith, constructing hope through kind words and deeds.
