“Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. ¹⁴ Do everything in love.”

1 Corinthians 16:13-14 NIV

Courage is not the absence of fear

Courage is the willingness to move forward without knowing the outcome

To admit we don’t know the answers

To be patient…Having courage is placing your trust in God ahead of fear

It is about not allowing fear to stop you or defeat you

  It takes courage to seek the Light

To surrender your plans for God’s plan…

“For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands. ⁷ For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.”

2 Timothy 1:6-7 NIV
