As you continue to develop your abilities to share the light as you come to see it, as you develop your abilities to voice the truths of the kingdom, it becomes evident that you have a small sphere of action, of effectiveness, limited by the range of your ability to be mobile physically and the extent to which you have
circuits of communication, as well as the opportunities that surround you wherein receptivity exists for the expression of the wisdom you have gained. I offer a tool for you that will broaden your range. It is the simple word encouragement, for as you encourage your fellows, you instill motivation. Where timidity may restrain one, you foster the drive to be active in one of your friends. The result is that you have enlarged your serviceability to all on your world, for you have become supporters of one another. This is teamwork. The more encouraging you become, the more courageous you will become in your own efforts, for encouragement is contagious. Once received it is a pleasurable response to give such encouragement in return.

Encouragement is not to be directed solely to instill good feeling, but in reality to provide the courage to act. Though a pep rally is uplifting to the emotional wellbeing, true encouragement actually promotes engagement. This is how you are able to enlarge your efforts as a missionary for Michael. Just as he developed through encouragement the abilities of his twelve, they extended, through their encouragement of the many disciples, into a far reaching ministry in an age when travel as you know it was much more limited. The master could not have accomplished what he did if all was on his shoulders and enacted solely by himself. Where you reach the boundaries of your abilities, do realize the indirect avenue of encouragement, that even when you are unable to effect a change, you can effect the effect of change. 

Since often self esteem and worth can hinder budding efforts particularly in arenas where you are feeling unskilled, inexperienced, encouragement is an invigorating factor. I encourage you to focus, when offering advice to one another, on positive encouragement rather than on negative discouragement. Steer the
attention of your fellows toward a progressive approach, instead of advising against activities that appear in your view to be ineffective. This is because of the human tendency to downplay worth through the evaluation of ability. It is not incorrect to discourage wrong behavior, wrong in mistaken action. Your emphasis shoul be to steer your fellows to accomplish a goal or an ideal. That comes through the positive
form of encouragement.
