I was not a cheerleader.
I never lead a pep rally
or
got a crowd chanting,
got a crowd chanting,
but over the years,
I have learned how to cheer on
and
encourage
and
encourage
my husband,
my children,
and others.
The easiest place to start is with a smile,
The easiest place to start is with a smile,
followed by a kind word.
Who will you encourage today?
"And let us consider how we may spur one another
on toward love and good deeds."
Hebrews 10:24 (NIV)
~ and ~
"Therefore encourage one another and build each other up,
just as in fact you are doing."
I Thessalonians 5:11 (NIV)

Great thoughts - as wives and mothers we are called to cheer our families on. As sisters-in-Christ, we are called to build one another up with our words. Thanks for sharing!

Great post! I was a basketball cheerleader in my youth, but it is cheering and encouraging that I do today for my husband and my girls that I am most proud of! (that, and I don't think I could fit into the uniform!)
ReplyDeleteDorie, I love this. We all have the ability to encourage someone and it doesn't take some big grand gesture. Blessings to you & yours.
ReplyDeleteWow! I love this!!! I am constantly telling the ladies in my ministry to be their husband's biggest cheerleader - not to tear him down in front of your friends.
ReplyDeleteGreat word here! I'm going to be my family & friends cheerleader today! Thanks for such a great reminder!
