Fear vs. Courage: Reaction or Decision? | From Behind the Pen

What will you choose to do today? React to fear? Decide to be courageous? Sometimes being overwhelmed can play a huge role as a vital motivator in our reaction to either jumpstart our fear or fuel our courage. We can be compelled to demonstrate courage, even when we feel afraid. Sometimes, however, being courageous can be easier said than done albeit highly possible.

Human nature calls us to be strong and not to show our weaknesses that are deemed big character flaws in society. However, it is in those moments of weakness that we garner the strength to be courageous. Even amid our grief, suffering, and challenges, we can feel deflated and discouragement can settle in like a bear hibernating during the winter.

Yet, we have the opportunity to respond to and accept our decision on how we shall react, whichever we choose, that will determine how our attitude will empower our walk today. Weakness is not always a negative, but it just depends on how we react to it, at the time we are going through it, that can either capsize our vessel of encouragement or work as a positive tool to encourage ourselves and others lovingly and positively.
