http://bible.us/111/JOS1.9.NIV Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”_Bible.com/app My daughter and I read Genesis through Judges, and then we start over again. It’s a children’s Bible, so it doesn’t take long.
Lately, I’ve noticed how Moses and Joshua, arguably two of the most notable leaders in Biblical narrative, were told to be courageous. God used this phrase over and over, “Be strong and courageous…Do not be afraid…”
I take comfort in this observation. Leaders who knew God, not just about God, needed continual reminders of God’s presence. They also needed continual reminders to be courageous and bold.
How do you think we should reconcile boldness and courage with a realistic view of our situation.0 Comments -
“If you could find a better way, Jesus would be the first one to tell you to take it. And if you don’t believe that about him, you don’t have faith in him, because what you’re really saying is that he would encourage you to believe something that is false.” — Dallas Willard1 Comments
