Welcome Encouragement for Today friends! I am so glad you are here! In my devotion today I shared one of the many ways I have learned to process my worries and fear, and how God used my own struggles to help my son overcome his.
And I also wanted to share a printable to download and keep for those days when you and your loved ones feel afraid.
CLICK HERE to download my “Fear Not For I am With You” FREE printable.
These verses have been woven into countless conversations I’ve had with Jesus about my fears and worries, and my kids’ too. I love these scriptures because the first one includes God’s words speaking to me, and the second one is phrased as my declaration and prayer back to Him.
There is nothing more powerful than our hearts hearing our lips proclaim our trust in God’s truth. Again and again.
I pray this printable is a blessing today as you let it lead your anxious thoughts to Jesus!! Hold those worries in your hands and ask: Is this what Jesus would say to me?
If fear is saying something to your heart that Jesus would not say to you – then the answer is NO! And YOU GET TO DECDE that it doesn’t get to stay! I’m praying for each of you who stop by today!

There’s nothing here…
I can’t wait for what it says. I need now going through a rough time. Thank you
Well ya’ll are the most awesome friends ever. I am so sorry for the confusion and frustration. This post was supposed to go out tomorrow, with content in it that I was working on tonight. But somehow it sent early, before I was ready. And then, for some crazy reason I got locked out of my blog and can’t update it til after midnight. And Mr Swope said I have to come to bed before then. 🙂
So I’ll send you the missing post in the morning.
And can I just tell you, ya’ll made my night when I hopped on here and read ALL your comments. Your words made me smile. Your notes to encourage one another are the best. And you just being here looking for the post told me that you read my emals!! And you are looking forward to what this one holds. 🙂 You bless me!! {{{THANK YOU}}}
Thanks for fixing this, Renee. It gave us a good chance to Trust In God! Good things come to those who wait! It is wonderful! Blessings to all.
It still isn’t working, when you click to download it only opens up an Internet page that has two verses on it.
I didn’t get anything either. Please let us know when it is fixed. Love Renee Swope and her ministry.
Would love to be able to read this when it is fixed!!
Hold tight, I know Renee will fix it and send it back out. Can’t wait to see it!
Amen to that, Kim!
I am having the same problem as those above. I do know that I could not make it without Christ in my life and wonderful devotional books!!
2 Timothy 1:7 For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.
No article on mine either, but……God tells us not to fear 365 times in the bible….enough for every day of the year!!!
Isn’t that just like God! He gives us exactly what we need! ❤
Blank for me too. Just title and link to here.
Could not find the five exhortations, but found the comments outstanding and encouraging. Thanks guys!
Yep, only comments he re, nothing else but the title.
something is definitely wrong… 🙁
I was looking and looking for the 5 truths and I didnt see them. But I do have to say that When I am afraid I lift my eyes to hills from whence cometh my help. My help comes from the Lord who made heaven and earth. So since God is the maker and giver of all things then I have nothing to fear. The Lord is always with me.
I have learned more about trusting God in the last few months than in years. BUT none of it has been easy.
Yes something went wrong. I got nothing showing also.
My page is blank also but, you know what, even when I don’t understand something I just have to TRUST because ” God has got you!” Lots of Love
Ditto to the comment above. However, fear is no fun and my favorite encouragement is: “What time I am afraid, I will trust in You!” Ps. 56:3. Another encouragement is: “Do it afraid!” Still another: “Fear not for I am with You….I will help you! Is. 41:10.
Um…when I got the email there was nothing in it other than the title and a link to this page. And this page is the same. There is no article explaining the 5 Truths. 🙁
with GOD i can do all things even walk on that treadmill GOD is always with me
