Loving our neighbor can bring us to a moment when keeping our own life comfortable means leaving someone else unprotected. Then courage becomes more than something we admire in a song; it becomes a choice about what we will do. Following Christ gives us reason to seek peace and protect others, while keeping our own strength under His authority. Before acting, we can bring our anger before God and ask whether we are helping someone or feeding our pride. The answer matters, because a good cause does not make every response good. Courage takes its orders from Christ, who commands us to love.
“Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. Let all your things be done with charity.” —1 Corinthians 16:13–14
