True Courage
"Courage is the power to do well when the air is turbulent and the going gets tough. It is having the character to do well when things are tempting, when things are painful.
It is easy to be a mother when a baby is cooing and gurgling over breakfast; it takes courage to be a mother when the child suffers from a terrible and incurable handicap.
Courage is the power to do well in the face of a threat--to your life, to your security, to your future, to the things you hold dear."
Lewis Smedes "Practical Christianity" (Tyndale House Publishers)
