Encourage Them

SUNDAY MEDITATION:
When a flashlight dims or stops working, we don’t throw it away; we change the batteries. When a person makes a mistake and finds themselves in a difficult situation, do we cast them aside? Of course not, we help them change their batteries! Some need AA batteries – attention and affection; some need AAA – attention, affection, and acceptance; some need C – compassion & some need D – direction. And if they still don’t seem to shine. Simply sit with them quietly and share your light. (anon)
