WALTER CLARKE SALVATION ARMY Someone has written "One of the highest of human duties is the duty of encourage- ment. It is easy to pour cold water on their enthusiasm; it is easy to discourage .one another. Many a time a word of praise or thanks or appreciation or cheer has kept a man on his feet." The beautiful part about encouragement is this: Anybody can do it. Hebrews 10:24 says, "And let us consider how to stir one another to love and good works." Everyone needs encouragement. There is one exempt from the need - to be encouraged by others. This is especially true within the family circle. The wife needs the encouragement of her husband and children. Children need the constant en- couragement of both parents. Students at school need to be encouraged by their teachers. Employees need to be encouraged by their employer. Members of sports teams needto be encouraged by their coach. Church members need to be encouraged by yone � MINISTER'S STIJ Y 1111011011111101011 each other. Everyone can benefit from entourage- ment. We must show concern, nterest, care, consideration, compassion. Ve must help, aid, or assist people in every way possible. It will make a better community in which to live. Depression and discouragement are age old problems. The Israelites in theirjourney were discouraged. Numbers 21:4, " ilid they journeyed from Mount Hor by the way of the Red Sea, to compass the land of Ecbn: and the soul of the people was much discourag- ed." They need encouragement. Throughout the Scriptures we find many words of encouragement. Isaiah 41::3, "For I the Lord thy God will hold they righthand, saying unto thee, Fear not: I will heli thee." Isaiah 41:10, "Fear thou not, for I arr. with thee, be not dismayed: for I am thy God, I o 1t will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee, Yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness." Matthew 14:27, "But straightway Jesus spake unto them saying, Be of good cheer, It is I; be not afraid." People have a tendency to become discouraged and to experience defeat in doing that which is significant and helpful. We are by nature self-centered creatures. We live in a self-centered world that measures success in terms of material possessions. The sinful world provides no encouragement. Let's change for the better by encourag- ing each other. Our wives, children, students, employees, those older in years, those in hospitals and institutions; all need our encouragement. Christian, your respon- sibility is great. Let us inspire others with renewed courage, spirit and hope. Genuine encouragement never fails to help. Let us encourage each other to trust in God, in Christ, His Son. Psalms 27:14, "Wait on the Lord, be of good courage." I Samuel 30:6, "David encouraged himself in the Lord his God." Reverend Bruce Howe appointed as new Dean of Huron Diocese Rev.
