Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.
1 Thessalonians 5:11 NIV
Actually all relationships = influence.
There is always an influence in something or toward something. This influence can be direct or indirect.
The point is influence is in all aspects of relation.
As people and mainly as Children of God we are called to love. To be encouragers and help build one another up.
We all know and experience the hardships of life, so it really takes nothing to help the next person out. And even the Holy Spirit nudges you when to act on that. It's all about trusting the Lord with the mundane things of life.
Just by paying for your groceries, you can ask the cashier how she's doing, and genuinely tell her to have a blessed day. This alone is encouraging. Many of us tend to feel overlooked and overwhelmed when times are not great, and just being acknowledged sincerely can really change the perspective of the day.
So let's task ourselves today, in having a posture of empathy, a posture of encouragement.
And stay present to the influence that you are putting out in the atmosphere and in your relationships.
Stay blessed and don't forget to be a blessing 💚
