“Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:11
Paul was encouraging and affirming the church of Thessalonica and we should take the words seriously of encouraging one another, especially as to our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
It is tempting to always be complaining, or find something that needs improvement, but instead we can look at people the way God does and encourage them to be more like Christ in their daily walk. After all, we are all messed up people and that is why we are in desperate need of a Savior. Let us encourage our brothers and sisters in Christ and those who have not yet believed, to surrender their lives to Jesus.
