THAT Kind of Courage--Part 1

New Year's Day started early with me in my recliner seeking God's heart. I asked what He wanted to talk about, and I figured He would give me a scripture to ponder or a country for which to pray, but instead, He said, "I want to talk about what I've already told you. I want you to really understand what I've already talked to you about. I REALLY want you to get the depth of what I mean by 'courage'."

I settled a bit deeper into my chair and said, "Then share with me and help me get it."

Without hesitation He said:

"The courage I am calling you to

is not the kind of courage

that comes to the edge of a rock

on the side of a mountain

and leaps because there is no where else to go.

The courage I am calling you to

is the courage that

seeks out the rock to jump from

knowing when you jump,

you're going to fly."
