Words of encouragement

I never really considered writing a Blog. Then one day, a lady that came to our house group shared that she was struggling with ‘life’ and that she liked the positive perspective I had on Scripture and asked if I would consider sending her a daily text to encourage her.

This began back in 2016 and slowly things grew. She shared her text and when it all got too much asked me if I would include some of her friends and they too asked for more friends to be included. This grew organically to a point where I couldn’t just keep sending texts and so I developed an online ‘Blog.’

Since then, I’ve been asked to put up a Facebook Page for those who prefer that, plus I continue to send daily emails as well as WhatsApp messages.

My heart is in everything I write and is foundationally based around Paul’s words in 1 Corinthians 4:15: “There are a lot of people around who can’t wait to tell you what you’ve done wrong, but there aren’t many fathers willing to take the time and effort to help you grow up.”

As well as 1 Thessalonians 5:11: “… speak encouraging words to one another. Build up hope so you’ll all be together in this, no one left out, no one left behind.”
