The Phrase That Pays

JD – Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage. ― Lao Tzu

MS – Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: Quicken me in thy righteousness. – Psalm 119:40

JW* – A man should always consider how much he has more than he wants. – Joseph Addison

EB* – The praise that comes from love does not make us vain, but more humble. – James M. Barrie

I really like the quote above about praise.

It is always humbling to receive honest praise from someone who really loves you.

It’s almost embarrassing.

Each time that happens to me, I am reminded that giving out praise should be a regular part of my day.

I should be looking for opportunities to lift up and recognize people and not let an opportunity go by.

Be on the lookout today. Find someone doing something praiseworthy and then let them know it.

Make it a great day.

Jake
