Sending Encouragement!
With the hands I have and all the empathy I can send, I would always ask people, “Do you need a friend today?” If not that question, I would give them the assurance with this, “Chat me anytime you need one to talk to, I will always make time” or “Tell me whenever you need help, I pray that the Lord may bless you rest!”
I always smile to people, full of hope in my eyes.
I make sure to be an effective instrument in extending His love and grace with all my might.
I want to cause a significant change; I want to be someone’s motivation.
I am always grateful to see people well that I did not even bother asking myself, “Do I need a friend today?” I was not able to say this to myself, “Take a good rest!”
It is in this time of pandemic we are in need of a kalakbay (a companion). Sometimes, it can really be overwhelming; it poses us risks of anxiety (and other mental health issues), but we should nurture the fact that we are never alone!
We should take heart in this journey of loving others and ourselves and carry each other’s burdens.
The pandemic should be a season of doing good and sharing with others!
You may not immediately notice how bright you shine, but there’s always someone who is inspired by you and takes you as their guiding light.
Hoping you’ll send out encouragement today! Have a grace-filled day ahead!
