SOURCES OF COURAGE.
6hrtstian Fortitude Is Grounded I'm
+, knowledge of Gods Presence
Mistakes Bound 10 Occur.

Jesus invited men 10 courage on the
sToand of Gods good will. Fear not,
9ttle flock, for it is your Fathers good
pleasure to give you the kingdom"
There is this deep and broad distinction
between Christian courage and any form
Cd stoicism; that it moves and lives in
the atmosphere of Gods presence. 1t is
the courage of the child rather than of
the soldier. Though ready TO endure and
strive, says the Boston CONGREGATIONAL
Isl, though DESTROYS of all the soldier
like qualities. assurance comes because
God is our helper and not because we are
strong. In acknowledging our weak
ness We are facing the facts of life. In
trusting God for help we are putting on
the armor which secures us against as
saults of pride.
One OF the crying needs of our own
time is Christian courage. We are not
20 be secure by putting ourselves on the
defensive. but by acting for God. 1t is
not good praise for Christian to say
that he never makes mistakes. You
might in these same terms praise stone
In the pavement, or a knothole in a
board The real question is whether the
Christian Is attempting anything for
Christ IL so, he will be sure to make
mistakes: we may say, indeed, without
frreverence. that God intended him to
run the risk Of laundering, for that seems
to be the only way of learning open to
us mortal men
fhetrue courage is willing to risk mis-
takes, IL 1t can only accomplish some
thing. The one thing II is forever un-
willing to do Is to sit still and not ven
ture We can only understand II when
We define our life in terms of acuuaint-
ance with God. He who always
recognizes Christ's presence is not
afraid that plumbers arising out of we'll
considered and unselfsh effort can be
irretrievabie. True Christian courage
recognizes more than Christ's presence;
1t feels the impulse of His trust Christ
believes In us. He has intrusted His
honor TO our hands. Therefore we may
fear, to any work to which His voice
may call us. The Holy Spirit is our
guide. and we are listening for the indi-
cations of His purpose. We are not
afraid that. whether through us, to our
happiness, or without us, to our shame.
HIS purposes can fail.
Optimism may be a mood, passing, as
moods pass, iatto rs opposite, discour-
ASement and despair. 1t should be rath-
or form of courage founded on a child's
faith In the good will of his Heavenly
Father. So 1t becomes at once indie
pendent of our feelings and surround
ings and help to others. How much
we all lean on men who have the
steady cheer of this unvarying Chris
tan courage! To look for the best, not
because the world is good but because
COO is working in it to bring about His
purposes. which cannot but be good: to
cultivate the social love which seeks the
best In man, to count discouragement a
forgetfulness of God, and idleness an in
gratitude. this is the way of courage and
OF JOY. which is at once becoming and re-
warding to the children of God.
