You Can Encourage Others
From head to toe God equipped you to encourage others.
God gave you eyes.
Use your eyes to look for those who are discouraged, lonely, or hurting.
God gave you a mouth.
Lift others up with your words. Use reassuring and positive words to help others. Share scripture verses that can encourage and uplift them.
The sweetness of a man’s friend gives delight by hearty counsel. Proverbs 27:9 (NKJV)
God gave you shoulders.
Offer a shoulder to cry on. Sometimes no words are needed to bring others comfort.
A man who has friends must himself be friendly. Proverbs 18:24 (NKJV)
God gave you arms.
Your arms can give a reassuring and comforting hug. Let others know you care by being there for them.
God gave you hands.
Use your hands to reach out and do things for others. New mothers, single moms, and missionaries are just a few people who would be encouraged by a little help.
This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. John 15:12 (NKJV)
God gave you feet.
Your feet can be used to take you to visit others. Shut-ins, sick, lonely, and many others would be lifted up by a visit and a smiling face.
Encourage others today!
Oh I love this Lois! And I like your paper doll likeness too. I just recorded an audio for the Say What You Mean Convention that talks a little about saying thank you.
Thanks for posting this. It’s a great reminder.

What a wonderful post. You created such a simple, yet clear picture of who we should be. Nothing complex, nothing hard to understand, just use what you’ve got to share God with others. Super job!
I love this! You have such wonderful insights!
