Courage

 

Courage is doing right, no matter what the consequences may be.  

With God's help we try to find the courage to overcome the obstacles and challenges we face. We are happy to learn from our mistakes and never give up.

Courage– The value is characterized by boldness and confidence. It’s the opposite of fear.

Courage is a core value for our church school because God asks us to be brave in the face of hardship.

In the book of Joshua, God tells his people to ‘Be strong and courageous; do not be frightened, for the Lord God is with you wherever you go.’ This reminds us to stand against injustice and to be the best we can be when things are difficult. We have courage to stand by our beliefs and are committed to what is right and true.

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."  Joshua 1:9

 

Our prayer for Courage is:

Lord,

Help us to be courageous when we are faced with danger or pain.  Help us to brave enough to do the right thing, not the easy thing. Help us to choose the way you want us to choose.

Amen
