Welcome To

The Encouragement Well


The Pain

The Pain is cruel, the nights are long;
bereft of God's love, without His song
I cannot take the thought of living
I steadfastly pray for His forgiving.

You see, I'm weak and painful worn
I must remember to not be torn
My body, His temple, is woefully sore.
As His love reminds of all He bore.


I must convey this message of love
His life He gave as His precious dove;
For in His heart he instills a swell
He's blessed us with the
Encouragement Well!

**A note from The Team**

Ever hear the saying a penny for luck?

Around the world there are fountains to throw your penny in, to make a wish. Well our well is here to draw from. So take time today to draw some encouragement for yourself, as you journey for a better way of living with Chronic pain and Illness.

Those of us who suffer on a daily basis constantly fight to keep up the good fight. To walk in victory and learn how to NOT allow our pain to control our lives. This can be so very hard at times. The pain is so bad our bodies are screaming out with it. After a while it affects our WHOLE person. The "tude" begins to sink, depression marches in like a battalion of soldiers set for war, and the outcome looks bleak, dark, and lonely. Let me tell you today. You are NOT alone.

Whether you suffer from arthritis,cancer,chronic fatigue syndrome,degenrative disk disease,depression,diabetes,endometriosis,fibromyalgia,headaches,heart disease,Insomnia,Lupus,Mental Health,Multiple Sclerosis,Pain,Sjogren'Syndrome,Thyroid Disease,Urinary Incontinence. ~~To name a "FEW" ~~ It makes no difference. We all find ourselves, wondering how to cope. Life is not the same. You are NOT alone.

Grab a cup of your favorite beverage find a comfy position, and sit a spell, and draw as much as you want from our encouragement well.

Merry , Sparkplug, Sharon and Pat
