Leaders, the size of your impact in this world will be based on the size of your courage.
Marinate with me on some quotes about courage:
"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in
moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge
and controversy". --Martin Luther King Jr
"To look at something as though we had never seen it before requires great courage." Henri Matisse, painter
"True courage is not the absence of fear—but the willingness
to proceed in spite of it.” Unknown
"If you find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn’t go
anywhere." --Unknown
“Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you
decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are
always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right.
To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same
courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men
and women to win them.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
Marinate on that,
Pastor Derwin

glad the quotes were encouraging.
Great leadership, the kind that makes the world better, requires massive amounts of courage.
I'm finding this out daily as a husband, father, pastor, and leader.
Keep up the super work! I was really impressed with your blog and all that you represent as a young leader!
