courage is not something we can manufacture by our own efforts. But when we surrender wholeheartedly to God, he gives us the courage to face whatever comes. He gives us the words to speak when we are called to stand and voice our faith.
Courage is not a trait that can be created through sheer willpower; it is a gift that comes from a deep connection with God. When we let go of our own attempts to control our fears and challenges, we open ourselves up to receive divine strength and reassurance. This surrender enables us to confront life's difficulties with newfound bravery.
In moments when we feel called to express our beliefs, it is God who provides us with the necessary words and confidence. The wisdom shared in Francine Rivers' "Mark of the Lion Collection" highlights the importance of relying on this faith-based courage, allowing us to stand firm in our convictions during trials.
