But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today.”

WAYS TO #CONNECTBYTEXT

 

Even though we may not be able to visit in person because of chronic illness, there are many easy ways to offer a virtual smile or a nugget of hope and to bless others right where we are. Some in our community regularly message, email, or text encouragement to others. It takes just a minute to send a text, reminding others they are cared about and prayed for. Today, take a minute and #ConnectByText and send someone a much-needed virtual hug. Brighten someone’s day and lift your spirit too.

 

TIPS FOR TEXTING THOSE WHO ARE STRUGGLING

  • Keep it short. Those who are hurting can have trouble processing information, but they can easily digest a short message.
  • Don’t expect a response. Those who are struggling might not have the energy to respond, but that doesn’t mean your text didn’t mean the world to them.
  • Write from your heart. You don’t have to craft the perfect text, just be honest and share a little love.
