Everyone on the planet likes a compliment every now and then. They at least like to know that what they are doing matters in some way, shape, or form. What if we, individually, thought of ways to make sure people, each month, know that they matter? I believe this life would be completely different than it is now! Below are 3 quick ways to say You Matter to someone today.
1. Show them they matter!
I say this a lot... "It's one thing to tell someone about Jesus, it's something else to show them Jesus!" Do something unique for someone else. And by "unique" I don't necessarily mean something no one else has done, I mean something the they wouldn't expect. Bake cookies for a neighbor, ask a co-worker if you can pray for something for them...anything really!
2. Say "THANK YOU"!
When someone does something for you, or lets you know something... tell them THANK YOU! And add in "you really helped me out today." or something to the like. Why do you think Chick-Fil-A always says "My Pleasure"? It's because that phrase let's someone know that it wasn't a burden and it was APPRECIATED that you let them give you more tea! Say Thank You! It'll go a long way!
3. Tell Them They Matter!
We can do all kinds of things that could show someone, but sometimes people just need to hear the words "You Matter"! Make an agreement within yourself to tell at least 3 people in the next 24 hours that THEY MATTER! Your spouse, your kids, your co workers, your boss... who cares!
The reality is that everyone matters to us and to God. Let's do everything we can to help people walk in that truth!
Oh, and guess what... YOU MATTER!
