Success is never final, failure is never fatal, its courage that counts.
So what is courage?
Rudyard Kipling writes that courage is “filling the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds worth of distance run”.
Henri J.M. Nouwen writes “the word courage comes from the latin word ‘cor’ , which means ‘heart’. Heart in this instance refers the center of your being, the center of all thoughts, feelings, passions and decisions”. Thus a courageous life is a life lived from the center. In the Bible scripture from 1corinthians 16:13 tells us to “Be on our guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.
We are all somebody. We all have a purpose. We all need to believe that we count. We need to have hope. That God has plans for us. God does not throw away anybody. We need to be courageous and stand by God’s word in the Bible that encourages us to live the life that God has chosen for us.
Be Strong and Courageous this week as you begin this new month……..God Bless you.
