Romans 1:12 “that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith.” What is a word which can determine the difference between success and failure?  That word is encouragement.  Children need encouragement.  Adults need encouragement.  Spouses need encouragement.  Students need encouragement.  Addicts need encouragement.  God, through Paul, also speaks that success word.  Christians need encouragement.  Eliminate encouragement and depression results.  Loneliness and failure become the mindset.  Encouragement may be the most important interactive word in any of our lives.  Encouragement—let’s practice it!
