In the Bible we meet Jesus in a man named Barnabas. He was the greatest encourager around and do you know what set him apart from everyone else? He turned outward not inward. When he had chances to shrink back, use his wealth on himself or a chance to celebrate his own success he turned outward and sought to bless everyone around him. We rarely see his name but he influenced the majority of the New Testament. Let's turn outward not inward!
