Build em up

How many people have you complimented today?

How many people complimented you today?

It's so easy to tear each other down. My students tear each other down constantly and it wears on me. They say things like, "You're such a retard!...Just kidding!"

When I confront them about it, they say, "It's ok we're friends!"

Strive to build up people around you. Find something good to say!

Ephesians 4:29

You must let no unwholesome word come out of your mouth, but only what is beneficial for the building up of the one in need, that it may give grace to those who hear.

Romans 14:19

So then, let us pursue what makes for peace and for building up one another.

Colossians 4:6

Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you should answer everyone.
