Word of Hope - Fred Crowell

A Word from the Author of Words of Hope

THE WHY I believe imagination is a great gift from our Creator. Using it, several years ago I began to explore a question that captivated me: How can I inspire my granddaughter even if she lives two thousand miles away? I started emailing her a few hope inspiring thoughts. With encouragement from my wife Susie, before long I had sent some 50 messages and contemplated creating a website for Words of Hope. Why? Because they seemed to have real impact.  

THE PURPOSE In life there is drive, there is rhythm and there is space. I believe most Americans are working too long and hard under too much pressure. Taking pride in work is important, but we don’t have the right rhythm because we don’t create space for rest. People often say “I’m too busy and don’t have enough time.”  

I’m there with you. Susie says “Fred, slow down the bus”, meaning I need to have peaceful, reflective time. Words of Hope slows down your bus and allows you to focus on what is really important. How do I want to live? How do I want to spend my time?  

THE RESULT I’ve written over 500 Words of Hope in the last 2 years and am excited to place many of these in a book that I hope will inspire you. By developing a daily habit of reading Words of Hope, you can quiet life’s pace and generate thoughtful space that will increase your energy and joy!

We all need hope and encouragement. Encouragement is like oxygen.

"Without hope there is no joy. I have experienced God's hope as the power to contend with cancer, seeking to imitate our Lord Jesus who 'gladly went to the cross for the joy awaiting Him.' My prayer is Words of Hope give you the same hope no matter your battle."
