Where Do I Need This Courage Most?

It's been a long time since I've tried to live life without God, so my memory is fuzzy there. So I can only speak for the recent years where I've employed my recipe for courage...with God.

The question is: where do I need this courage most? I believe if you join forces with God and choose to go where He wants to take you, you will need every ounce of courage you can muster. He seems to think BIG, inspire us, and then employ timing that is nearly guaranteed to make you ask, "What ARE you thinking, God?"

An example: I became an assistant principal of a K-8 school when I was 8 months pregnant with my third child. Really, God? But, at the pace of a turtle, just never giving up, I learned and continue to learn that this life of God-adventure is passionate, doable, and truly intoxicating with His love for life and us. Want adventure? The secret, I believe, is in His calling.
