Courage at times calls us to face what we fear. It calls us not to avoid what we fear, but to face it. Avoidance may be the path that many human beings would rather take. In order to avoid coming face to face or confronting what terrifies them the most.
Yes, in some instances it is wise to avoid certain situations in life. Probably situations where what you need is actually boundaries and not confrontation. Where confronting may be more damaging to you; mentally or emotionally or even physically it is not just best but also wise to avoid and put in place boundaries.
However, for some situations it is necessary to confront the fear. To analyse and discern which situations need confrontation, and respond appropriately. All courage calls to do, is to maintain our personal powers as human beings-be responsible for our lives, to take authority over our lives; to take charge of our lives. Not to allow other people to dominate you. Yes, there is definitely room for partnerships it is necessary but not under the disguise of domination. No! Take back your power. That’s all courage is; taking up or taking back your power. Your God-given power to be responsible in your life and not to be dominated by anything. No one is called to be dominated, it is some human beings who chose to dominate others and some who allow themselves to be dominated. Be courageous-take your power!
