I find joy in lifting others up, providing them with words of affirmation and inspiration. Whether it's fellow musicians in the worship team, members of the congregation, or those I encounter in my community outreach efforts, I seek to encourage and support them on their own faith journeys. In my worship leadership, I use this gift to empower others to express their praise and devotion to Jesus freely. I strive to create an atmosphere of acceptance and encouragement, where everyone feels comfortable stepping out in worship and drawing closer to their faith. The gift of an encourager also extends to my role as an aunt to my nieces and nephews. I make it a point to be their cheerleader, celebrating their achievements and comforting them in times of challenges. I want them to know that they are loved unconditionally and that they have someone in their corner, rooting for them every step of the way. As I continue to serve my community and church, the spiritual gift of an encourager infuses every aspect of my ministry. I see the transformative power of encouragement in the lives of those I touch, and it fuels my passion to continue spreading hope and positivity through my music and worship. My journey as an encourager not only blesses the lives of others but also enriches my own spiritual growth. It reminds me of the importance of kindness, empathy, and the profound impact a few encouraging words can have on someone's life. I am humbled and grateful for the opportunity to share this special gift, and I pray that it may continue to uplift and inspire others on their own paths of faith and worship.
