Courage

Courage is the most devoted servant of one’s own faith in oneself and God.

Timidity says, “God is forever unknowable.” Courage says, “God is at present unknown, but only for a while.”

Cowardice is an extra load to carry in the march of our day-to-day life.

Courage is an ever-willing extra porter to carry our wealth, inner and outer, according to our soul’s volition.

Courage is perfection only when it springs from one’s oneness with the vision of God.

There is no other way to please our inner self than to be a perfect emblem of courage.

Enthusiasm in its purest expression is courage.

Without courage, life is a path without progress.

Against one’s inner courage, death itself contends in vain.

Courage is God’s successful inspiration in man’s body, mind, heart and soul.
