Need encouragement?

“Anxiety in the heart of a man (or woman) weighs it down, but a good word makes it glad.”

Those are the words of the wisest man who ever lived. His name was Solomon and he recorded them in the book of Proverbs.

Somehow, he knew anxiety. He experienced loss. He experienced despair.

But he must have also experienced the joy of conquering despair through the “good words” of others.

Then he recorded life’s lessons so he could share them with others. Today, thousands of years later, we can still read them in Proverbs, Chapter 12.

I personally believe that each of us should challenge ourselves to continually speak good words to others, especially those we live with. You never know how someone is hurting.

It’s hard to find someone who hasn’t experienced loss of something significant, whether it’s a pet, a boyfriend, a job, a spouse or a parent.

It’s often hard to pull ourselves up out of despair and that’s why it is so important for us to encourage each other, especially during this family season we are entering in November.

Even though families are wonderful, the misunderstandings that often occur aren’t always reconciled. That can cause grief and complications at the Thanksgiving table… if everyone even shows up.

So we have to learn how to deal with grief constructively.

Tomorrow night, I’ll be talking with a grief counselor on the phone who is launching an exciting new site that offers help for the hurting!

Whether you’ve lost a pet or a parent, join us to learn more about a very needed ministry.

My guest will be Pam Clark, a former Hospice worker and homeschool mom from Colorado.

She has a story you don’t want to miss.

If you know anyone who is experiencing grief and could use some words of encouragement, invite them to this call. It could change their life.

The call is Tuesday, Nov. 13 at 9 PM Eastern Time.

The number to call is 605-475-4150

The passcode is 42037#.

We’ll talk to you tomorrow night!

So many books, so little time...
