I have a dear friend who was a wonderful encourager but she would hesitate to step forth and bring this word. She always like to stay in the background, but the Lord has a way of leading forth those he wants to speak for Him. He put this word upon my heart for encouragement to this dear warrior of the Kingdom.

MY ENCOURAGER

My daughter, I see you ever so clearly.
As you boldly step forth with my word
to touch a reluctant person, but oh so dearly.

Your words are spoken from the heart and so
carefully chosen.
To help make clear the path, the enemy's darts
have so tightly woven.

Your words are spoken softly, yet with a manner
from above.
It is as if these words came straight from the Throne
on the wings of a dove.

They are meant for that person not quite sure
wheather to take that step or not.
Yet they are so confused
without your words,
the battle would continue to be fought.

But my daughter because of your obedience to listen
carefully to what I have to say.
You have opened the heart of someone struggling
and helped them to see the way.

You feel you have nothing to say and
continue to stay hidden away.
But my daughter you will now soar to the Heavens
Beginning from this day.

Speak boldly my child the words that I
put upon your heart.
From these words, many will look to Heaven
and Praise God for their fresh new start.
