What do we do when the world feels overwhelming; when the walls start closing in? As encouragers of faith, people look to us to lead them through the valleys. But, what do we do when we find ourselves in the valley? We rest on God’s Word. It’s easy to look around and feel feelings of fear, despair, and anxiety. But God. God has us and it’s time we start praying to promise instead of praying the problem.

10 Verses to help when you feel afraid…
