To quote John Wesley, ‘Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can.’

Be generous with encouragement. It is verbal sunshine. It costs nothing, it warms hearts and enriches lives. God himself has given you ‘eternal encouragement’ and wants to encourage your heart.
