BOB
Good morning this is Bob Peden of Central, a United Methodist Community here in Meridian. In the latter part of the fourth chapter of Acts we met Joseph, a Levite from Cyprus whom the Apostles called Barnabas, which means son of encouragement. Here was a man who spent so much of his time encouraging others in their work in the Lord that encouragement became his nickname. We all need to hear words of encouragement from others. In the 15th chapter of Romans, we learn that God gives us endurance and encouragement. Often times that encouragement comes in the words of those around us. Next time you see someone doing a good deed. Take a moment to praise them. It will cost you nothing, and the pleasure you receive from encouraging another will last you all day long. Be a Barnabas - a son of encouragement today.
