Verbal
Affirmation = Encouraging Words.
One way to verbally affirm
your spouse is to give encouraging
words. Allison always wanted to be a
writer, but after receiving her first
rejection slip from the publisher she
gave up. One evening her husband Keith
came into the den and said: "I
hate to interrupt your reading, but I
have to tell you this. I just finished
reading your article on "Making the
Most of the Holidays. Allison, you are
an excellent writer. This stuff ought
to be published! You write clearly.
Your words paint pictures that I can visualize.
You have a fascinating style. You have
got to. submit this stuff to some
magazines." "Do you really think so?"
Allison asked. "I know so," Keith
said. "I'm telling you, this is good."
Ten years later, Allison has
had several articles published and has
her first book contract. She credits her
success to Keith's words of encouragement.
Perhaps your spouse has untapped potential
in one or more areas of life.
That potential may be awaiting your
encouraging words.
