1Cor:16:18 For they have refreshed my spirit and yours. Do I refresh the spirits of people whom I interact with? In my workplace. In my church. In my own house. Or do I gossip? Do I enquire and encourage? Do I make things difficult and hardpressed at home? Knowing each other's needs and genuinely praying and finding out answered prayers helps. Giving a listening ear helps. There is no need to talk always. Just to listen. You need not crack jokes often to be light hearted always. Being genuine is better. Considering others more important than you. When you talk, let it not be about you always. Rather theirs. Image courtesy: https://bestlifeonline.com/reasons-not-to-wash-face-morning-news/
1 Cor:16:13 Be on the alert, stand firm in faith; act like men; be strong. Watch out. Look out. Be on the alert. Stand firm in faith. That is what men do. Be strong. Stay strong. Dwindling in your trust in God is what children do. Act like the man you are. Be a man. Stay strong on your faith. No matter what happens, hold fast to your God. That is mature faith. Do not let go to fear or anxiety. Be strong. Faith is trusting God, the Father despite what the circumstances look like. Knowing fully that He is in control. That He will take care and thats enough. He is enough. Image credit; https://www.freepik.com/premium-photo/hand-holding-fist-symbol-determination_139829368.htm
