“And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.” – Hebrews 10:24-25
In his book “Discover Your True Potential”, R. Ian Seymour writes: “Do you know how they teach dolphins to jump high out of the water and over a rope? The trainers start by putting the rope below the surface of the water and then every time the dolphin swims over the rope it gets rewarded, but every time it swims under the rope it gets nada, zilch. Of course, the dolphin soon learns to go over the rope every time and it continues to do this as the rope is gradually lifted higher and higher out of the water. The trainers build up the dolphin’s belief system; they encourage them to overcome any self-imposed limitations and to keep climbing higher.”
Are you spurring others to love and good deeds? Today in prayer, ask the Lord how you can stimulate others to love and good deeds.
