The road to becoming a committed follower of Jesus is hard, rough, rocky, etc etc. There aren't enough "difficult" words to describe just how hard it is to follow Jesus. You will be endlessly disappointed, endlessly frustrated with yourself. It's failure after failure. Guilt-ridden and everything else.
So how can we survive the hard road? What's one thing we can practice today that will help us from destroying ourselves with our own minds full of lies and discouragement that get us down instead of renewing our minds to build ourselves up in Christ Jesus? One way today we can go about this is by encouraging our fellow comrades as they battles their own inner enemies. Be an encouragement to another Christian today, we all walk a tiring road.
Do not tire my brother, do not give up my sister. Press on to acheive the goal, Christ crucified, and resurrected. Call upon the prayer and strength of the saints who walk with you and have walked before you. Walk with encouraging words on your lips. Let your life and prayer encourage others as they struggle to find the living Jesus. Jesus sees you today in your time of need. Let Jesus give you his water.
