Dealing with difficulties – Faint-hearted

Faint hearted: Nervous, timid, deficient in courage.

There is a saying, “not for the faint-hearted”.

I think all of us at some times have felt faint-hearted. The saying goes ‘courage is not the absence of fear, it is facing the fear, and doing it anyway.’ That’s why it is so important to en-courage one another as often as we can; encouragement puts courage into the other person.

Once we ask Our Lord and Our Friend to come into their lives, He becomes our all sufficiency. As we become secure with the knowledge of who we are IN Christ Jesus, and put of our Faith and Trust In him, we will find our confidence growing.

In Joshua 2 verse 24; “They told Joshua, The Lord has handed over the entire land to us. Everyone who lives in the land is also panicking because of us”.

With God on our side, we have no reason to be faint-hearted, and every day in the Lord is a new day. So let the words from Deuteronomy 2 verse 29; take hold, as we do what The Lord requires of us to do.

v29; “Today I begin to put the fear and dread of you on the peoples everywhere under heaven. They will hear the report about you, tremble, and be in anguish because of you”

We are all called to walk by Faith. In Faith, there can be no faint-heartedness, there only can be big heartedness, because it is all about the Awesome God we serve and not anything about us

God Bless.
