Philemon vs. 7
7Your love has given me great joy and encouragement, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the saints.
In our lifetime we cross paths with many people. Sometimes I look around at a Reds baseball game, in a crowded mall or in other venues where a lot of people gather and I think, wow - there are so many people I will never talk to or get to know. Yet, God has a way of putting the people we need to know in our path. What a blessing when we connect with people who refresh our hearts. I'm sure you can think of someone who has come into your life and blessed you with their positive impact and encouragement. Praise God for that person.
Like Paul, be thankful for that love and encouragement and pass it on to others. You can be the one who makes a difference to someone else.
Life without encouragement is like cheerios without milk. The round circles of oats just sit on the bottom of the bowl. Add the milk and they are lifted to the top.
