Everybody needs encouragement!

Sympathize with each other. Love each other as brothers and sisters. Be tenderhearted, and keep a humble attitude. (1 Peter 3:8 NLT)

 Everybody needs encouragement! Most people feel a certain amount of inferiority complex and tend to get a little discouraged with themselves, so encouragement is a very important thing!
 We all need the encouragement of others, and yet most of us fail all too often to express appreciation or comfort to those about us.
 The Lord knows that encouragement is very important. “Whatsoever things are good, if there be any virtue and if there be any praise, think on these things!”
 We need to apply that to those around us and try to remind ourselves constantly to think on and praise others for their good qualities, the good things, as the Lord does with us! Amen? —DBB [1]

 Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and the wrong. Sometime in life you will have been all of these. —Lloyd Shearer (1916–2001)
