40 WERE YOU THERE?

 

Message [Brett]: When the disciples asked Jesus to give them more faith, He told them how much they could accomplish with faith the size of a tiny mustard seed (Luke 17:5-6). Perhaps courage is similar. Perhaps it is bestowed in crisis-sized packages, when we’re IN THE MIDST of exercising the courage we might not think we have. Sometimes we are called to point out wrongdoing, to demand justice, to face pain. Sometimes we are called to walk away from situations involving free wills unwilling to change (Luke 9:5). God gives us dignity IN THE MIDST of hard times, courage IN THE MIDST of trouble.
