18-NOVEMBER-2024 - WIND BENEATH MY SAILS (THE IMPORTANCE OF SUPPORT)

THE MAIN THEME: HOW DO I GET TO WHERE I AM GOING?

TITLE:  WIND BENEATH MY SAILS (THE IMPORTANCE OF SUPPORT)

The bible verse for today’s devotional is: Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 (NIV)

"Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up." 

Devotional

Having the right support system—friends and family—is like having wind beneath your sails. It keeps you going when the journey gets tough. Think of people like Malala Yousafzai, whose family and supporters helped her stand strong in her fight for education. Without their encouragement, her journey might have been much harder.

Think about Moses and Aaron. Moses wasn’t a great speaker, but Aaron supported him by speaking for him. Together, they accomplished God’s mission. Just like Moses needed Aaron, you need the support of friends and family to help you on your journey.

Ecclesiastes reminds us that we’re stronger together. The right friends and family can lift you up when you’re down and help you reach your goals. Don’t try to go through life alone—surround yourself with people who encourage and uplift you.

Here are a few questions:

  1. Who in my life is a source of support and encouragement?
  2. How can I show appreciation for the people who help lift me up?

Let us pray:

Lord, thank You for the friends and family who support me. Help me to appreciate and cherish them as they help me grow. Amen.

Please say these words of affirmation. Say them, mean them, own them and live them:

  • I acknowledge the support I need to get me to where I am going.
  • My friends and family are the wind beneath my sails, supporting me on my journey. 
  • Kudos to me for recognizing the importance of support!"

Do have a beautiful day dear ones. Take good care of yourselves. I’ll see you tomorrow.
