Boomerang? "When someone does something good, applaud! You’ll make two people happy." This was the life-long motto of film giant, Samuel Goldwyn; he knew that appreciation was a two-way street. The one who received it benefited as well as the one who gave it. Both were fulfilled.
Think about it. Why are people so reluctant to bring encouragement and praise to one another. Perhaps it's the belief that receiving is more important than giving. Yet, if that's the case, the one thing we ought to be doing is really spreading the praise around.
God’s Word tells us: “Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and Joshua son of Jozadak set to work to rebuild the house of God in Jerusalem. And the prophets of God were with them, supporting them” (Ezra 5: 1-2).
When you have good things to say, what's the purpose of keeping them bottled up inside?Doubtless what you give will return to you in dividends. It’s just a matter of believing that good news, appreciation, is a boomerang. It can't help coming back to where it came from.
“I pray today in Jesus name that when we never forget that there are always people around us that need our praise. When we give praise we thank God that He will cause that praise to return to us.” Amen!”
“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own” (Matthew 6:34) www.thispassingday.com
