May Scripture Writing Plan 2016

Thank you to those that have emailed me this month to
tell me how much you like these little scripture writing plans!

I try to respond to each email but please know if I don't that I
seriously LOVE hearing stories of how families,

and Sunday School groups, and churches, and friends 

are working through the plans together.

GOD is so cool how He uses our simple works for HIS good and glory! 

This month I felt very strongly that I needed to do a set of verses on a specific topic

and so I chose a topic that so many, myself included, struggle with: 

Anxiety/Fear.

God mentions the phrases "fear not", “do not be afraid”, 

“do not fear”, and “be not afraid” many, many times in the Bible. 

Obviously He knew we would struggle with anxiety to include it so many times!

(Want to see them all? Check out this great list!)

So for those following along, here's the plan for the month of May.

You can find a copy to print out for yourself in the folder HERE.

For those that have asked, there is also a blank form 

to write your verses on that can be found HERE. 

Thanks to a sweet reader you can also find the Spanish version HERE.

The sweet reader who picks the verse for the short version for her students

hasn't sent them back to me yet- but as soon 

as she does I promise to post that version here!  

Another reader asked for a version that was more manly (for her husband) 

so you can also find that version HERE.

I love happy stories.
You know, those happy, inspiring, tear producing stories that
remind you there IS good in the world!
I LOVE those so very much!  

I love them so much that I seek them out
daily to remind me of the good in people.

I share lots of those types of stories on Facebook 

but here are a few of my favorites from the past week!

teacher with "I'm Gonna Love You Through it!"

 created gloves that turn sign language into speech. How cool is that?

PRECIOUS!



You are NEVER too old to learn something new. NEVER.
And this 85 year old who took up tap dancing- is proof!

Carrying him on their backs! 

This train station stayed open for an extra YEAR just to take a girl to school each day!

If the station had closed the girl would have had to walk 73 minutes every morning to catch a 9am train in a neighboring town. So instead- they kept it open till she graduated!
