Will you take the #encouragementdare?

In the immortal words of Schwartz on A Christmas Story, “I triple dog dare you!”

No, silly, not to stick your tongue to the flag pole. That would totally hurt!

I am challenging you to take the #encouragementdare.

Will you take the #encouragementdare?

Okay, I know, you’re thinking two things:

  1. I have no idea what this is; and
  2. It sounds like something I’d like to do.

Let me share a few more details.

The #EncouragementDare

In 2007, then-President Obama established September 12 as the National Day of Encouragement. Intended to be a reminder to all of us of the way neighbors and strangers stepped up to provide support, assistance, and encouragement following the tragedy of 9/11, the National Day of Encouragement provides us with an opportunity to be a positive factor in our communities as well as an occasion to encourage those around us.

DaySpring has long embraced this idea of encouragement. But this year, they’re taking it a step further! The #encouragementdare is a challenge issued to not only encourage others but to encourage them in Christ. And, truly, y’all, is there any other encouragement that really matters?

An encouraging word matters.

The past few weeks have been tumultuous for so many people in the US. Between the hurricanes and the fires, my social media feeds are full of loss and sorrow. I’ll be honest, some days it just feels like overwhelming. I can’t fix or change any of it. And neither can you.

But here’s what I know — an encouraging word matters.

The #encouragementdare won’t replace anything lost in natural disasters, it can’t bring back someone we’ve lost. But it can point us back to the God who is our comfort, who carries our burdens, catch our tears, and calms the storms inside us. When we encourage others, we are reminding them God sees and knows their difficulties and He hears and responds to our prayers.

Sign up for the #encouragementdare and spend this week spreading hope and light around you.
