Words of Encouragement

(Today is National Day of Encouragement)

DAILY VERSE

Worry weighs a person down; an encouraging word cheers a person up.

Proverbs 12:25

DEVOTION

We can never know what other people are going through. You may be talking about how amazing your job is to someone who’s been unemployed for a long period of time and is having trouble finding a job. To them, these conversations are cutting.

Encouragement, however, can turn someone’s day around. No matter what someone is going through, a word of encouragement can make a massive difference!

Today, no matter how busy you are, take some extra time to encourage someone!

Influenced by this group he began a regeneration process that changed his life for a more active service for God. He began a newsletter to encourage others.

Bradley Hilton grew up in the church and has always been a believer; it wasn't until 2000 that he reaffirmed his faith and went all-in for Jesus. At that point his life was transformed and he felt a nudge from God to start leading a men's group in the church. The influence of this group led him through a regeneration process that changed his life for a more active service for God.

As a result he began to write a newsletter as a simple form of encouragement. More and more people began to request being added to his mailing list. God nudged him again to start a blog.

Believing many more would be blessed by his writing he started The Daily Dose - Daily inspiration from God's Word. Bradley is well known as a Barnabas in Christian communities on WordPress and in other venues.

Bradley and his wife, Michelle, share life together in Texas with their four children and two grandsons.
