Speak Encouragement 3
Anxiety is no new emotion these days. Job changes, economic uncertainties, our emotions, even health wobbles. Proverbs 12:25, Anxiety weighs down the heart, but a kind word cheers it up.
Every person can make an outsized impact creating cheer in the face of anxiety. Offer a kind word. Think of a person or two who might be in an anxiety promoting situation. Specifically what can you say that would bring cheer? We’re not saying gloss over hard things. Here’s an idea.
'I have seen your strength in other situations. You will pull through. I see that in you.’
'I see your persistence and know you are resourceful. I’ll be cheering you on.
A kind word can make all the difference. Bring sunshine to others and it cheers us as well.
