This message is still inspiring us in 2023. Thank you for reminding us that we are all broken in some way, and I thank God for RU-vid, that no matter where we are in the world, we can listen to these encouraging messages. God bless you all!
I recently met a lady who used to go to Chuck Swindoll's church and she told me she was there to hear this message. We both now live in a 55+ plus community. God has drawn us together. It's so encouraging to hear this message! Blessings!
You have blessed me for many years now. My brother had muscular dystrophy when he was 16 yrs old the doctors said he would not live to 18yrs old, God had other plans though. He went college and graduated in computer science. You were an inspiration to him. He is with our Lord now, he died at the age 52yrs. He helped with the 4yr old in church and oh, how they loved to ride on his wheelchair. He made a statement one day that he couldn't wait to get to heaven so he could stand up and see how tall he was. He had many struggles through life but Jesus was always there.
Joni had this accident a year after I was born again and I have followed her life to this day..is that really Chuck Swiindoll she is talking to now.Cant believe it! Listen to him in South Africa on Transworld radio at 8 am every day.. Father or son? Both wonderful ambassadors of Jesus Christ. Love his expository of tbe Word. Granny Pat 🙏 May 2023
There's no one like Joni! I wish she knew how much she and her sweet husband meant to so many. Joni, you've allowed our Faithful Father to use you in so many ways to make the whole a much better place. When we all get to heaven I hope that you will be able to meet the countless numbers of souls whose lives you saved and gave hope and direction to. Many crowns are waiting for you, precious child of God!

What an inspiration Joni has been to me over the years. We all have our own sufferings and God has helped me through mine by remembering Joni and God’s grace in her life. Thank you Joni and thank You, Jesus. 🙏👍❤️
16:29 Amen. The Lord has brought Joni and Ken to mind countless times over the last 35 years, most often when I'm feeling sorry for myself. What a blessing these two have been.
I hae lost count of how many times I've listened to her book, "The God I Love!!!!" My favorite part is the part where her friend Jackie, sang that beautiful song to her!!!" "Man Of Sorrows, what a name, for the son of God who came! Ruined Sinners to reclaim, hallelujah, WHAT A SAVIOR!!!!!!" I love, truly LOVE that part, because, when Jackie's son had taken his own life, Jonie wrote to Jackie saying, "I wish I were there, because if I could be, I would hold your hand, and I would sing you that song, you sang me many years ago!!!!!" WOW!!!!!!
Joni you are my hero and amazing.. You make me want to love Jesus better. This talk made me cry. You are amazing. Thank you!" When I like vault over the pearly gates" oh Joni! You will!
18:53 "When I pole vault over the pearly gates...." My dear, I am a pole vault coach and I absolutely adore you and the message of truth you bring. I just prayed that you will INDEED pole vault over the pearly gates. When I meet you in heaven one day, will you let me know if God answered that prayer? I look forward to our conversation.
This was so moving. May the Lord Bless you Joni and Ken as well as Pastor Swindal❣ I am always blessed abundantly when I hear you speak, Joni. I thank God at the end that the choir through the Holy Spirit blessed you abundantly: as well as the rest of us. I cried too, which I haven't done in a very long time. It was for you Joni and Ken that my tears fell. The Lord's mercies endures forever💞 AMEN One day you will lay crowns at the Lord's feet. What a Blessed day that will be when our Jesus we will see. I'll see you soon Joni and friends as well as all those in Christ Jesus. Much Love for you all.❤ 3/17/19

69eyre Thank you for these beautiful words, they soothed my troubled heart. I'm been through such heartache and sorrow and recently I was a victim of a crime where I almost died. It's been really difficult and I have been struggling to just feel emotion again. I love Isaiah 43: 1-7 and those words spoke deep to my heart. Thank you for taking the time to write this beautiful anthem in it's entirety.
I googled "Be Not Afraid by Taylor Davis" and came up with this sheet music www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/be-not-afraid-sheet-music/5248881 But there were several more options. Blessings.
Thank you for sharing this incredibly intimate and transparent interview. May the Lord continue to smile upon you both, Chuck Swindoll and Joni Eareckson Tada.
This lady puts me to shame, l am a 75 Yr old in good health, but grumbling too much. How does she do it? Well because she trust in Jesus completely and utterly, x

Be Not Afraid g.co/kgs/a4torg Be Not Afraid Song by John Michael Talbot [Verse 1] You shall cross the barren desert But you shall not die of thirst You shall wander far in safety Though you do not know the way You shall speak your words in foreign lands And all will understand You shall see the face of God and live [Chorus] Be not afraid I go before you always Come follow me And I will give you rest [Verse 2] Blessed are your poor For the kingdom shall be theirs Blessed are you that weep and mourn For one day you shall laugh And if wicked men insult and hate you all because of me Blessed, blessed are you [Chorus] Be not afraid I go before you always Come follow me And I will give you rest
Thank you for posting this encouraging and inspiring interview with Joni! And that beautiful song at the end - awesome! Is there a way to buy the sheet music of that song?
