"...Teresa, thanks for your thoughtful words: <br /> "Bravery whispers the divine and grows greater from faith that our lives are in God's hands." <br />Another keeper quote for my book of wisdom from blogger friends.<br />.

Thank you for that as well as some thoughts and a question for reflection. I have to agree with Desirae's statement that, "God always has a plan. It's not always easier, but it's always better." I think that is the intersection of bravery and faith. So on a human emotion plane fear is normal. Bravery whispers the divine and grows greater from faith that our lives are in God's hands.

Small groups read The Liberation of Gabriel King in our 5th grade FEAR unit, and they love it! Both stories are such great examples of bravery!Holly Muellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00476411667354933648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887210982915389572.post-26950875425167623392015-03-20T06:03:24.406-04:002015-03-20T06:03:24.406-04:00I love your definition of brave- some big truth th...I love your definition of brave- some big truth there, I think. I have never heard of THE LIBERATION OF GABRIEL KING, but it sounds terrific. Going to put it on reserve, hopefully for some spring break reading!Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13294455230627182656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887210982915389572.post-85564093875453052762015-03-19T22:24:09.299-04:002015-03-19T22:24:09.299-04:00A good question that I may have my students consid...A good question that I may have my students consider, Ramona. We are headed for a long trip in early May, 10 days to DC & to Chesapeake Bay. some of the younger ones have shared that they are a little anxious. I wonder if a conversation around your question will help?Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887210982915389572.post-83830078854205037892015-03-19T21:17:55.182-04:002015-03-19T21:17:55.182-04:00"Can you be afraid and brave at the same time..."Can you be afraid and brave at the same time?" I think you can! Many times God has given me courage to do something even though I was afraid! Thank you for reminding me about Esther's story. On the video clip, these words really resonate with me tonight: "You;ll never realize how strong you are until strong is all that you have left."Jaanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02027755562339582129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887210982915389572.post-11192318117248631882015-03-19T15:25:12.942-04:002015-03-19T15:25:12.942-04:00It has been years since I read The Liberation of G...It has been years since I read The Liberation of Gabriel King. I may have to pull that one of the shelf and add it to the TBR pile. I like your question of how does brave manifest in your daily life. The daily is the word that pops for me. It is the little moments of brave - going to the dentists when you really are afraid of them, stepping out of your comfort zone. Thanks - good food for thought today.
