I Thessalonians 5:11 ” Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.”

The Apostle Paul was actually encouraging and building up the followers of Christ in Thessalonica with this very scripture. When we edify and strengthen those around us…when we build people up rather than tearing them down, everyone benefits. Praising someone takes less energy than ridiculing them…and you feel a whole lot better about yourself when you walk away.
