You were created to make somebody else’s life better. Somebody needs your smile. They need your love, your encouragement & your gifts.

Men, learn to speak blessings over your wife and you will see that woman rise to a new level. She will respond to your praise and encouragement. Your words don't have to be poetic, fancy, or profound. Tell her simply but sincerely, "You're a great mother to our children. And you are a great wife to me. I'm so glad I can always count on you."
If we're going to bring out the best in people, we, too, need to sow seeds of encouragement.
Look for ways to be a blessing. Simple words of encouragement can brighten somebody’s day.
