Wednesday Wisdom: “If you see something beautiful in someone, speak it.” (Ruthie Lindsey)

Sharing “feelings” isn’t always something that comes naturally to every person. Let’s be honest; it requires a certain level of vulnerability to offer a true compliment. Rather than finding out how someone else is doing out of genuine care, too often we get caught up in the almost robotic “How are you?” “I’m fine,” script.

Why not take some time this week to be authentic with another? Speaking beauty doesn’t mean acknowledging how someone looks; speaking beauty is acknowledging something beautiful in someone that you observe — a kind word, an open door, a helping hand.

1 Thessalonians 5:11 says that we should encourage one another and build each other up.

When you get the opportunity, speak beauty. You won’t regret it.
