Courage

 

Happy (late) Halloween! I hope everyone had a fun, safe night! The whole theme of Halloween is scariness, right? So I thought I would do some posts on courage, you can come back for my next post filled with some great scriptures about courage. When ever I think of Courage, immediately my thoughts turn to Esther. I LOVE her story. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints has made a wonderful Mormon Message about Ester and 3 other women who have demonstrated courage.

 

It is amazing to me the courage that Esther had! In today's world it is vitally important to have courage- especially the courage to say no. The courage to stand alone for what is right. The cool thing is, even though we may feel alone the Savior is always at our side. He will never leave us alone. I also love the Mormon message below about a time when President Monson felt all alone.

I also love these two prints from All things Bright and Beautiful from this past general conference:

I know that our Father in Heaven will NEVER leave us alone and that courage is VITAL to staying on the correct path in the world today. When have you shown courage?
