Courage

...what a word huh? I tend to apply it more to movie heros then to ordinary people. But I think I need to cut and paste it into my life as one of the highest of virtues... to strive for.
Mom showed me this verse this morning as we were doing devotions together...


"...Don't get off track, either left or right, so as to make sure you get to where you're going. And don't for a minute let this Book of The Revelation be out of mind. Ponder and meditate on it day and night, making sure you practice everything written in it. Then you'll get where you're going; then you'll succeed. Haven't I commanded you? Strength! Courage! Don't be timid; don't get discouraged. God, your God, is with you every step you take."
Joshua 1:9 (The Message)
