The Courage of Heroes
Posted on March 23rd, 2010 5 comments
Life is full of many ups and downs, twist and turns, and so many of us miss the blessing of just making a difference in the lives of others. In this time of history, we can all learn from the history making efforts of our biblical characters like David!For several years I have held the understanding that you can do nothing without courage! This reality has been seen so many times, in my personal life, that I have lost count! Courage is a necessary character trait and is the counter to having no courage or in other words (discouragement). By the way, discouragement is the greatest weapon that Satan has in his arsenal of tricks!
I recall a story in the scriptures that directly illustrates the issue of heroes that have courage! In 1 samuel 30:6, David’s men spoke of stoning him, because upon their return to their city in Ziglag, they discovered that all the women and children were missing and their entire city was destroyed! So in the last portion of the verse, you find that “David encouraged himself in the Lord his God“. This really inspired me to recognize that sometimes in life, heroes and everyday people, find themselves in a position that does not provide any outside encouragement whatsoever! This situation happens to all of us and you and I, like David, must Encourage Ourselves In the Lord! This is what Heroes would do and this is what we all should do on a daily basis.
Take courage today and remember that if it were not for the Grace of God, which is as real as the atmosphere that we breath, you and I would not even be here alive to discuss having the Courage of Heroes!
Enjoy Your Day,

Professional Encouragement Lifestyle CoachThoughts of Courage for The Day: “Be strong and of good courage. In order to fight successfully, a soldier must have courage and strength. Of ourselves we are weak and feeble. But we have the promise, “They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”

i am almost always bouncing around the internet just about all of the afternoon as a result I usually tend to browse a lot, which unfortunately isnt commonly a beneficial factor as the majority of the internet websites I view are made up of unproductive trash copied from some other sites a trillion times, nevertheless I gotta say this website is indeed quite informative and includes some authentic material, for that reason many thanks for smashing the trends of only copying other people’s websites, if you ever wanna play a few hands of zynga poker together with me let me know – you have my e mail
