Building It Up


29 Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. - Ephesians 4:29

I can remember times that my parents, friends, family, teachers, and coaches have built me up. I feel like I am being built up all the time, even if it is with criticism. My favorite example of this was during a basketball game last year. Lets just say we hadn't won a game in a while. We were tied and had to go into overtime. We ended up winning the game. I had been so discouraged before, but I still had knew that we could win. Everyone was congratulating me and I felt like I was on top of the world. I know that I make bring people down sometimes and I don't mean too. That is something that I want to work on throughout this year. I want to be nice to everyone and not because I have too because I want too.
