ENCOURAGING
January 20, 2020

Prayer:  Help us Lord to be encouragers to our students.

Scripture: Worry weighs a person down; an encouraging word cheers a person up.  Proverbs 12:25NLT

It is important to remember that you may be the ONLY person to give a student (or anyone else) words of encouragement. Encouragement is not usually the first thing that comes to mind when a student is sitting in front of the office or fails a test (again), but it can make a lifetime of difference. Lack of encouragement, or worse, discouragement can destroy anyone’s self-esteem. How can each of us carry out the attribute of being encouraging in our daily environment?
