Courage

I had the privilege of being at a medical procedure this morning with one of our toddlers from the church. She had tubes put in her ears. As I watched her this morning, she amazed me by her courage. Without parent, relative or friend, she was wheeled to the back for her surgery.

I believe God is calling us to courage. Life can be very scary sometimes. The fear of the unknown seem to be present more than absent. However, that doesn't give us the license to hide and hope the horizon will change. The only way to face life is head on... much like this little lady did this morning. God is with us! He promised to never leave us or forsake us. So... face your future with certainty that not matter how bleak it may look, courage takes us to the other side.

Have faith in God!

It amazed me also. I wish I had that kind of courage. Children are so innocent and trusting. I pray that all children and everyone will listen to his word and know that he holds all of us in his arms. I am so thankful that we have a wonderful Pastor and his wife in our lives.
