Cheer On The Saints

 

....because the hearts 
              of the saints
have been refreshed
   through you.

         Philemon 1. 7

There have been 
   way too many times
I have not wanted
to get involved
or attend a meeting.
And God reminds me
 of His divine appointments there.
Go, 
encourage, bless, refresh.
There is someone 
  who desperately needs that.
How different this world could be
if we entered every situation
with a heart and mindset
  to bless others there.
Not what we can get from it,
      but what to give.
Encouragement
   can change the course
   of someone's day
                      or life.
When we refresh the saints
  to not grow weary,
God increases 
    our strength through it too.
God whispers to us,
   Approach this differently.
How can we refresh others
    in this situation today?

O LORD,
We are grateful 
  that You multiply
one encouragement
   into a million.
Open the windows
   and let Your grace
flow through our relationships.
Grant to us Your wisdom
    and compassion
        --and courage--
to refresh someone today
        in a tangible way.
Empower us
   to cheer on the saints.
