5 Simple Ways to Encourage Your Kids

Encourage-kids-1200

This past Mother's Day, my pastor brought his mom on stage and asked her to share tidbits of wisdom she'd passed to him throughout the years. The best was when he said his mother would tell him: "Everyone loves you, and if they don't, they're stupid." The audience howled, as you can imagine, but as she spoke that morning, what became clear was that this mama knew how to encourage her son.

"Encourage means to give someone courage," my pastor said. As a mom to a 6-and-a-half-year-old and 2-year-old, there's nothing I'd like more than to instill that sense of encouragement in my girls. I may not always be around when discouragement strikes, so here are some practices we're putting into play. Add your own in the comments!

 

Five Simple Ways To Encourage Your Kids

1. Effort is Everything

Be their biggest cheerleader, but choose the cheer carefully. When kids are praised for their ability, they fail to focus on their effort. Celebrate the effort and they'll continue to push themselves past their ability.

2. Together as a Team

My daughter suggested we come up with an actual cheer to help us feel encouraged before a challenging task. I reminded her that we often say "Go Team Davis!" (mostly tongue-in-cheek) whenever we've accomplished something. It helps us remember we're not in this alone. There's strength and comfort in togetherness.

3. Attitude Determines Altitude

Actions speak louder than words. The clichés are endless, but the fact isyou can talk about having courage and a good attitude, but if yours stinks, it'll show up–most likely in your kids. Have courage for yourself. Acknowledge bad days and tough times (for yourself and your kids), and use them as teaching opportunities.

4. Know the Source

Our courage comes from God. His ways are not our ways. We don't have to rely on our own strength. Help your child commit Joshua 1:9 to memory: "Be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go" (NLT). Some others that will provide encouragement are: Zephaniah 3:17, Jeremiah 29:11 and Proverbs 3:5-6.

5. Love, Love, Love

1 Peter 4:8 says love covers over a multitude of sins. The Message paraphrase says, "Love makes up for practically anything." How true that is! When I asked my daughter what would help her feel encouraged or give her courage after a bad day, she said hugs and kisses.

 

It takes such little effort on our part to show our kids love and erase discouragement. The more we do it, the less we'll need to worry about anything.

Every day as I drop off my child at school we have a routine. I say, "Madilyn, I hope you have a won-der-ful day" (wonderful is always super dramatic). She responds with, "I will."

Encouragement and affirmation. A hug and a kiss. Give them freely and watch your little ones blossom.

Single Mom Loses $310K to Fake Charity Investment Scam…

Raised two kids alone, worked overtime as a cashier, bought school supplies myself, saved $310K for their college and a better home. ‘Emily’ connected online, shared my struggles, pitched “ethical” charity-linked investments with 20% monthly returns to help families. Trusted her story, sent it all. Lost everything. Locked in bathroom, collapsed crying—sure I’d stolen my kids’ future. Found JetWebHackers at midnight. Messaged broken. They traced fast, recovered full $310K in weeks. Funds arrived… held kids’ photo, tears of joy overflowing. They rebuilt my hope. If scammed, don’t give up—JetWebHackers are real saviors. Thank you deeply! God bless.

I used to be a very poor woman who has always not found luck when it comes to playing the lottery. I have been playing the lottery since i was 21 years and now i am 45 meaning i have been playing lottery for 24 years. The biggest amount I have ever won in my life was 400 bucks. But one day my story turns to history after I find this man’s name on the Internet that he is the best when it comes to winning the lottery. This man is a very strong voodoo doc who gives out the numbers that can never fail. After all my years of laboring and struggling to win the lottery i finally won ( $27,000,000) Dr Alli is the name, Email:  allispellhelp1@gmail.com or contact him on his whatsApp number +18033346682 this is the only way to win the lottery and the best way

Living with Herpes simplex was depression for me even with my doctor’s advice and medication. My name is Vicky Moore I live in Chicago, Illinois and this is my story. I browsed the Internet in search of remedies or something but unfortunately nothing new, all still had the same results. Sadly I almost quit on myself, it was around 7:30 in the morning when my therapist called me over to her house, at first I was skeptical, but I went anyways on getting there she was smiling and said there’s living proof now, she showed me a lady who also suffered from herpes simplex 3years back and now she is cured by a doctor who also studied natural herbs. I was amazed and lost for words I even doubted but showed me a doctor’s report test. So I contacted the doctor and weeks later, I was cured. So I would love to use this medium to say a big thank you to my therapist and Dr. Chalopa. This story is shared to others like me out there. However, he also treats other illnesses.

My husband just woke up and decided our marriage was over. For a few months now, Mark and i have not been going well because he was having an affair with his assistant at work. I loved my husband so much and decided to stay and work on our marriage. In a short time, Mark stopped coming home and his close friend told me he has another apartment where he live with her. I was hurt and went on seeking for help because Mark was different from the man i married 10 years ago. Luckily, i found Dr OGBO who promised to return my husband back to me. He performed a reconciliation spell and he returned back and now we are both happy again with our boys. If you have issues like mine, send Dr OGBO Email psychicogboreading@gmail.com or contact him on Whatsapp +2349057657558..

God bless Dr. OLIHA for his marvelous work in my life, I was diagnosed of HERPES since 2023 and I was taking my medications, I wasn’t satisfied, i needed to get the HERPES out of my system, I was directed by my brother in-law to meet Dr. OLIHA who is good at curing HERPES DIABETES and CANCER with his herbal medicine, I contacted him and he guided me. I asked for solutions, he started the remedy for my health, he sent me the medicine through UPS delivery service (UPS).
