A Challenge for February, 2011


Ashley, of Live for Today invited me to do this challenge with her.  Put quite simply, the One Comment at a Time Challenge. (OCT)

So, what do you think?  In her own words...
"But I got to thinking how important a single, simple, little comment could be.
It could improve a persons mood.
It could make a person laugh for the first time that day.
It could change a persons mind.
It could totally change a persons day.
And most importantly, it could show the person the love of God."
 Doesn't everybody love comments?  I never met a blogger who didn't, and I think Ashley has really hit on something here.  I mean really, if you are going to waste time on the computer, you might as well encourage somebody while you're at it. :D

So, here is the challenge.  On EVERY POST you read during the month of FEBRUARY, you will COMMENT.  It doesn't have to be a well written thought out epistle that takes 10 minutes to read, just a simple, "Wow, what a great idea!", or "That was so encouraging", or "Haha!  That reminds me of..."

Make 'em, laugh.  Make 'em think.  Make 'em pray.  Make 'em feel like dancing.  



"Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing."







 1 Thessalonians 5:11

  7. Wow, Joanna, that's quite a challenge! =) Great job for taking it on. I don't think I will commit to it, because then I would be on the computer all day. =) But I will try to comment more often, even if it is short. And of course, I love comments too! =)
    Blessings,
    Annie

  8. That's a nice idea! I always try to leave positive thoughts on people's blogs too... because I love comments just as much as I'm sure everyone does, so I try to give as much as receive!
    And thank you for your sweet comment on my photographs!
