“Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:” Proverbs 31:28 NIV
There’s something powerful about giving unexpected and simple compliments to people. Yes, it is one of the 5 “love languages” but it’s also a simple ingredient that packs the power of changing the relational air we breath. I’ve seen it in counseling, working for Apple, and today we also see it in the Bible.
Try to give out a few unexpected compliments today, and don’t expect anything in return. Just give them as little treats and observe. Not only these have an effect on the recipient but in us as well. It’s mental health gold, and it is free.
Let us practice building people up today. There’s not much of it in the world and we have the power to make a little difference. Let’s do it.
