Reflection

“Praise, like sunlight, helps all things to grow.” –Croft M. Pentz

Prayer

Joyous Spirit,

What a gift it is, to be able to bless those around us through our words and deeds, helping them grow in ways that provide blessing for us in return! Inspire us to be agents of blessing today. With sincere and generous spirits, help us recognize and name out loud the talents and treasures the people around us bring into our lives and the wider world. May we praise you by praising them, acknowledging the many ways they make a difference in the ministry we share and beyond. As we praise you above all, source of all blessing, Amen.

Call to Action

Who around me is in need of an encouraging word of praise? Be on the lookout for someone who could use a little praise and find a way to shower them with blessing.
