Today I have been thinking about being an encourager.

I have a Girl’s Group at one of my schools and today this is what we focused on.

We focused on encouraging words.

We looked at the word encourage.

We looked at what does it mean.

We looked at words of encouragement.

We shared with each other when we have encouraged others.

We shared with each other when someone has encouraged us and what that felt like.

We wrote down words that can encourage others.

We wrote down encouraging words in our journals and we wrote down who we were going to encourage this week.

We also encouraged each other.

We shared in our circle.

Words are powerful, they really are.

I am passionate about encouraging others, I really am.

We can make a difference in people’s lives about how we speak to them.

We can make a difference in others by being an encourager.

We can impact others in how we speak to them and about them.

Yes, words are powerful and words make a difference.

Who are you going to encourage this week?

What is it going to look like?

I would love to hear from you.

Let’s share what we do this week.

Let’s encourage one another.

You are amazing.

Yes, you are.

Be an encourager.

Each morning I read the YouVersion bible study, it is a really great app.

I love how they structure it and you are able to hear from amazing women and men of God. They are from around the world and I love how they speak into our lives.

They have amazing prayers that you can pray.

I also read my Spirit-Filled Woman’s Devotional Bible.

One of the amazing Bible’s that I own.

My Bible today is looking a little bit worn and torn, they say that this is a good sign.

I agree with this.

I am happy that my bible looks a bit worn and torn.

I really am.

A bit like my life.

It represents my adventure with God.

He is there for me.

He is always there for me.

He never leaves me or forsakes me.

Today they spoke about Psalm 37:4 which I love.

Psalm 37:4 says-

Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.

When you read this scripture what does it say to you?

What does it mean to you?

I am grateful that when I pray to Him and express my desires that He hears me.

He really does.

What is your desire that you need to express to Him today?

Can you journal about it and then see how God answers you?

How exciting it this?

Be encouraged beautiful, brave warrior I believe in you and He believes in you.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mum’s, I hope that you have the most wonderful day and get so totally spoilt.

You deserve it.

You really do.

Today I will be celebrating my Mum with an afternoon tea at my sisters.

This will be lovely; I love buying presents.

What are you doing to celebrate with your Mum, I would love to know?

Mother’s Day for me is difficult, yes, I admit I do find it difficult.

You see I did not have the opportunity to become a Mum.

Insert vulnerable post here.

When I was younger my dream was to be a Mum.

It was all that I ever wanted, was to be a Mum.

It was my dream to have children.

When I was a young child, I imagined while holding my doll, that I was their Mum. I imagined being a Mum.

Even though I am not a Mum I am very grateful that I am an Aunty.

I love that I am an Aunty.

I have 3 beautiful nieces and a nephew.

As an Aunty I get to love on them and invest in them.

I love having them over, I love creating memories with them.

Being an Aunty is so important to me.

I am grateful that I am an Aunty.

There is something about being an Aunty, there really is.

I pray for anyone who is not a Mum on this day.

I pray for anyone who is feeling lost today.

I pray for anyone who finds this day difficult.

Beautiful one

Know that you are worthy, valued and loved.
