Hallelujahs And Hiccups

DAY 3 OF 14

Courage Over Comfort

Regardless of our hesitation or fear, humans need change to be happy. Try to do something you've never done every single day. Don't be afraid to try new things, color outside the lines and get in the discomfort zone. If you want something you've never had, you have to do something you've never done. 

It might not always seem like it but the decisions we make every day can influence whether or not we face anxiety, disappointments and stress or peace, happiness and success. Courage is the willingness to make those decisions every day and live face to face with their outcomes. Everyone experiences fear, doubt, depression, and anxiety. But not everyone has the courage to move beyond life’s setbacks. Nelson Mandela once said,” I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.”

Prayer: Lord, help me to be bold and courageous and not settle for mediocrity because of fear. Help me conquer every setback, hiccup or life’s challenges in Jesus’ name, Amen.
