Encouragement is oxygen for the soul. Paul wrote, “Encourage one another and build each other up.” (1 Thessalonians 5:11). Appreciation is one of the simplest ways to obey that verse — and one of the most powerful.
When you tell someone what you see in them — their strength, kindness, resilience, creativity, humor, compassion — you give them a gift no wrapped present can match. You remind them they matter, that they’re not invisible, that their presence makes the world softer.
Good news spreads through words that lift instead of tear down. Celebrate someone today with genuine appreciation — it may be exactly what they need to keep going.

Be good news today: tell someone what you genuinely appreciate about them. Encouragement builds others up and reminds them they matter. A simple word can change a day. (1 Thess. 5:11)
