Hebrews 3:13 … Cheering each other onward (08/18/16)
“Exhort one another every day, as long as it is called ‘today’” ~ unknown (Hebrews 3:13)
It is not enough to plan to care for another, or to wait to extend Kindness only on those days we judge to be special (“birthdays”, “holidays”, etc) … For the time to Care is always now, and the person to Care for is always right next to you.
And how are we to Care for them — how do we “exhort” them fully? By simply looking them in the eye, by choosing to see their True Self within, by smiling at them warmly, and then by asking if there is anything we can do to bring them more Peace. This is true exhortation; an unconditional affirmation of the other — valid & whole just as he/she already is.
Amen … Let it be so.
