Prayers or encouragement?

Were discussing last night at the Huddle about the best way to support each other in our daily lives-the other 165.5 hours of the week we're not at the Huddle.

I was saying that I felt it was really important to be encouraging and supporting each other verbally or with messages or whatever, whereas one of the others was saying that it isn't as important as praying for each other, which I also thought was important.

At the end of the day I reckon they shouldn't be mutually exclusive, and in fact neither are as effective as they could be without the other.
