Bringing encouragement helps during difficult times. The following are some ideas to help you be a vessel of encouragement.
- Be available to listen. This shows support. When someone is sharing trials they are facing they sometimes will realize the path they should take towards resolution.
- Highlight positive aspects to their life. This brings balance during present difficulties which your friend may have lost sight of.
- Pray for your friend, mobilizing God to move in their circumstances.
- Pray with your friend. This brings a special sense of hope to life.
- Send an encouraging letter, postcard, card or e-mail. This gives your friend someone to read during lonely times or when there is no one around to talk to.
