In class, I have been reading about Jesus Christ's life and looking for acts of courage. I then had thirty minutes to write about it.
How can we see courage in the life of Jesus?
Fear is a reaction and courage is a decision; this is a famous quote by Winson. Churchill. Today I am going to talk about someone that is way more famous than Winson Churchill. I will be talking about the son of God Jesus Christ.
We can see courage in Jesus Christ the son of God when Jesus calmed down a storm. When Jesus calmed down the storm Jesus didn’t panic like his disciples did. Jesus stayed calm. Jesus had just woken up from a sleep and asked his disciples where is your faith in our Father God. Jesus just rebuked the heavy wind and the raging waves. He rebuked the storm with authority. So what I mean is when you are going through something not good in your life you just stay calm, have faith in the son Jesus christ and speak with authority when there is something going wrong in your life.
Jesus showed courage when he had calmed down the storm. He had faith in God and didn’t say that I can't do this. I can't calm a storm down. But Jesus believed in himself and Jesus stayed calm and didn’t think that he couldn’t do it. Because In the bible it says “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”. Philippians 4:16
This can help us when we have storms in our lives.We can be like Jesus and stay calm and not panic and speak to God with authority and we can speak to the storm in our lives with authority and ask him to help us. Not to keep it to ourselves and put more pressure on your life and not tell anyone what you are going through in your life.
To sum up, Jesus is a good example of living a courageous life. He doesn't let fear in his life stop him from doing what is right in his life.
