Courageous

Joshua 1:7-9

“Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. 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.”

“Confront the dark parts of yourself, and work to banish them with illumination and forgiveness. Your willingness to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing.” ― August Wilson

Courageous people aren’t fearless They just learn to walk through the fear. Joshua is asking us to be courageous. There will be ups and downs, good and bad, but we need to just keep walking. Life is very much like a bowl of cherries. You are going to deal with pits, but oh how sweet the rewards! God has laid the path before us, and yes, sometimes it looks rocky and scary. We will be asked to do things we really don’t want to do. That is reality. So, chin up, be strong and courageous and march on my friend. I promise the rewards are worth it!
