Psalm 10:17 “You, Lord, hear the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry.” Last night, at a meeting where former addicts of the Lighthouse ministry met, the question was asked—how important is constructive encouragement?  To summarize in one word the answer was—extremely!  There is no one who encourages you and me more than our Heavenly Father.  How important is that encouragement?  Answer—there is nothing more important!  Study His Word and receive the best nourishment your soul can possibly receive.
