Building One Another Up

In 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11 we find life-giving words as the Apostle Paul describes followers of Christ as people of the "Day." Day refers to the time of Christ's appearing when all who are in Christ will be caught up in the air with Him. This coming event should move Christians to build one another up and encourage each other as each day moves us closer to being with our Savior. Encouragement is the undercurrent of a healthy church and of the life of a believer. On this Father's Day, let us be people of encouragement who build one another up through what we say and what we do.
