Send an encouraging Facebook/Email/Text message to a friend! We are connected with many people on a daily basis. Use this great technology to encourage, challenge, and love your friends with regular messages. For example, this year I sent a short message to every single one of my friends in my life-group, reminding them of how blessed I am by each of their friendships. You never know how much an encouraging message can change someone's day!
