How does it feel to be criticized? Well, it is definitely NOT a good feeling. Some are able to let criticism roll off of them like “water on a duck's back”. But others, not so much. They take it to heart and lose sleep over it.


Becoming an encourager can change your life. You start to look for the good in other people instead of “nitpicking” their every move. You begin to see their pluses can outweigh their flaws.


I’m not perfect at this yet, but I want to be. That is the point. You gotta want to live a life of encouragement…it “ain’t” just gonna happen. Look for opportunities to love on others and be encouraging to them. Uplift their spirits with kind words. Make criticism a thing of the past.


Romans 14:10,13 NLT

[10] So why do you condemn another believer? Why do you look down on another believer? Remember, we will all stand before the judgment seat of God. [13] So let's stop condemning each other. Decide instead to live in such a way that you will not cause another believer to stumble and fall.
