For Good Neighbors

Dear Jesus,
Thank you for the gift of neighbors. Good neighbors look out for each other in unique and meaningful ways. They help us out when we’re in a pinch. They keep a watchful eye over house and home while we are away. They are often the first responders in an emergency. They lend us items to help us get jobs done. They assist with projects. Good neighbors are a treasure. Lead us to thank them regularly, while also striving to be the good neighbor we hope to see in others. As we do, help us also view these meaningful relationships as ripe mission fields. Open doors for us to witness to our neighbors so that we might lead them to you. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

To Uplift and Encourage Others

Loving Lord,
We never know the full extent of the burdens others are carrying at any given moment. We do know the constant negativity and collateral damage of living in a fallen world takes its toll on us. Therefore, help me go out of my way to speak words of positivity and encouragement to others. Use my kind words and gestures to lift up spirits and cheer up those who are down. A simple smile or friendly expression can go a long way, and it doesn’t cost me a thing. When I realize such a small, deliberate gesture may be all it takes to turn someone’s whole day around, move me to jump at any chance I have to make a difference. Furthermore, when I am intentional about encouraging others in these ways, it tends to improve my own mood as well. And, as I do so, I reflect more of you to a world that needs just that: more of you. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
