the Barnabas Blog...

...a sampling of Scriptures, poems & devotional thoughts from a fellow pilgrim plus selections from other writers that hopefully will bring encouragement and hope to the weary traveler. We wish to provide hope in the midst of your storms and challenge you to bless others as you have been encouraged. Be refreshed! Leave encouraged! Have a great day! "...that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope." - Romans 15:4b (ESV)

Son of Encouragement

Welcome to the Barnabas Blog! As I celebrate the 1,000th posting on Pilgrim Scribblings I thought it would be fitting to launch another site where ENCOURAGEMENT would be the theme. The New Testament follower of Jesus, Barnabas, was truly an encourager. His name means "son of encouragement" (see Acts 4:36). So...our URL on this blog is: www.acts436.blogspot.com

Come back often. Our prayer is that you would be encouraged in your Christian pilgrimmage and that you would find everything you need in the person of Jesus Christ, our wonderful Redeemer.

Thanks for your visit!

Be encouraged today!
