Courage

 

(John 16:33, Psalms 10:17, Psalms 69:32) How do you see courage? What is courage to you? Courage is not the opposite of fear but the triumph over it. The phrase "He pressed on despite his fear," says it all. Over our lifetimes we are faced with many challenges that also have our fears attached to them. We have all had our defeats in the face of fear and our victories over those fears. The Christian has something others do not, the knowledge that death has been defeated through Jesus Christ. (2 Timothy 1:8-10) The sufferings of this world are only temporary and should not be feared but faced head on. This time on earth is not a time of aging and death but a time of growth and birth. We are children yet to be born into the kingdom of heaven. Unlike the way we were born into this life without choice, we have the choice to live in eternity or to die in darkness. Fear is mostly the fear of failure. Failure is what can teach us to be victorious. Fear can also be the road to death in many ways. Take courage in the knowledge of death's defeat even though it may seem impossible and move forward toward immortality. (Romans 8:34-39)

That will do it for this week's post. Remember to always "Love The Details." God bless and keep you safe.
