JONATHAN
Hello, I’m Jonathan Crabtree, Pastor of Student Ministries at Central – a United Methodist Community in downtown Meridian. When I say “courage” what comes to mind? A person? A personal memory? A song? Courage is a form of strength to do something that scares us. I think of so many stories in the Bible about people with courage to do things that scared them. Noah had courage to build an Ark and face the flood. Abraham had courage to leave his family, pursue God’s calling, and even be willing to sacrifice someone very close to him. David had courage to face a giant and a group of people persecuting his people. Courage is a strength to do something about our fears.
What are the things you fear? Do you want courage to face them? God gives us courage because God gives us Himself. God doesn’t give us courage and leave us; no, God goes with us! This is where we find courage. Take hold of the courage God gives us, today!
