Thursday 13 Be a Cheerleader

I think we can all use a cheerleader! The Bible tells us to encouraging one another daily in Hebrews 3:13. Cheerleaders have a way of encouraging you to go for it. Make another touchdown, shoot another 3 pointer, kill that volleyball. They get the crowd on your side, and keep the momentum going your way. We should be each other’s cheerleader. When we know someone is facing a battle, we should be the one who is giving them a call and telling them, that we are on their side, that they can make it, and all things are possible with God. Spiritually, we encourage others by saying and doing things that make God more visible to them. Encouragement shouldn’t be a luxury, it really is a necessity. As parents, each day we can encourage our children. They don’t need to hear it only when they have done something exceptional, they should hear it regularly. What are some of the things people around you have said to encourage you? Do you remember your parents encouraging you? Do you remember a teacher or a fellow student who helped you grow and do and be a better person? They were like a cheerleader in your life. They probably couldn’t do the splits, but they were patting you on the back, and encouraging you with words that made a difference. They kept it real for you, why not become a cheerleader for someone else. We can encourage one another.
