Hi Everybody!
((((HUGS))))
Bible in a Year : Psalms 79–80; Romans 11:1–18
The whole assembly became silent as they listened to Barnabas and Paul telling about the signs and wonders God had done. Acts 15:12
When he was a young boy, Benjamin West attempted to draw a picture of his sister, but he succeeded only in making a mess. His mother saw his creation, kissed him on the head, and remarked, “Why, it’s Sally!” He would later say that it was that kiss that made him an artist—and the great American painter he would become. Encouragement is a powerful thing!
Like a child learning to paint, Paul didn’t have much credibility early on in his ministry, but Barnabas affirmed his calling. It was through Barnabas’s encouragement that the church accepted Saul as a fellow believer (Acts 9:27). Barnabas would also encourage the fledgling church of Antioch, helping it to become one of the most influential in the book of Acts (11:22–23). And it was through Barnabas’s encouragement, as well as Paul’s, that the Jerusalem church embraced the gentile believers as Christians (15:19). So, in many ways, the story of the early church is really a story of encouragement.
The same should apply to our own lives. We might think encouragement is merely saying something nice to someone. But if we think that way, we fail to recognize the lasting power it possesses. It’s one of the means by which God shapes our individual lives as well as the life of the church.
Let’s thank God for the moments we receive encouragement and strive to pass it along to others.
How has encouragement shaped your life story in some way? Who encouraged you, and how did they do it? How will you encourage someone in your life this week?
Father, help me encourage others as You have encouraged me.

Good Golly, Miss Molly--The Playboys (1955)
Good golly, Miss Molly,
Lordy, how you act!
Good golly, Miss Molly,
Lordy, how you act!
You're stopping all the traffic
Like a brand new Cadillac.
You've got me rolling
And tossing all in my sleep.
You've got my poor heart jumping
Like a runaway Army Jeep.
Good, good golly, oh, Miss Molly,
Let me be your beau.
Good golly, Miss Molly,
Let me be your fool.
When you mambo like you do,
I have a hard time keeping cool.
I want you, baby,
To take up all my time.
I'll give you all my loving
If you only say that you'll be mine.
Good, good golly, oh, Miss Molly,
Lord, what can I do?
Good golly, Miss Molly,
Lord, what can I do?
I could move you, babe,
If I could just get next to you.
Good evening, Publius, and thank you for Rachmaninov’s “The Star Spangled Banner”.
