You Are Brave

According to 1 John 4:18

“18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.”

With the perfect and unfailing love of Christ, you can be brave and fearless. Sometimes we are going through situations where we need to be brave, and we need to stand up for what we believe in!

Emily’s Story:

I have had many of times when I needed to be brave but just couldn’t. One of these times was before I became homeschooled. I used to attend a school called Riverside. Now I’m not gonna lie...I wasn’t popular and I’m probably still not. One day I went to school and one of the guys I went to school with told me that people were spreading a rumor about me. I figured it was the same kinda stuff that they always said about me but when he told me what they were saying...my heart dropped to my stomach. I had to be brave and tell the teacher and the disciplinarian. After the disciplinarian talked to them they stopped saying that rumor but kept spreading others. One day I just couldn’t take it anymore so I told the teacher I was going to kill myself. Obviously I didn’t! That night God talked to me and told me that He would always be there and would send me some True friends!  I had to be brave from that point on and tell myself that it wouldn’t do anyone any good if I were to kill myself. Since then I have read so many scriptures and become closer to God. He has helped me so much and changed my life. I have also made plenty of true Best Friends! One of which is Abby. The point is I have to be Brave and God helps me do that everyday.

Here’s a really good song about being brave that we hope will encourage you:
