Proverbs 18:13-24

“The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity: but a wounded spirit who can bear?” (14).

With courage, people carry on despite adversity.

Without courage, who can bear up under anything?!

The weight of discouragement is so heavy that carrying any additional load is nigh impossible.

So let me be an encourager…a load bearer for those who feel hopeless and strengthless. With kindness and forbearance and patience. And joy. And faith. And love.

And…somehow…let me begin at home.
