looking for courage. Ironically, that character is a lion!  He goes with

the crew to ask the wizard to give him courage.  But in the end, he

finds out that he had courage all along.  He mistakenly thought that

since he was scared in the face of danger that he was lacking the

ability to be courageous.  Being a Christian can be quite the same.  We

are faced on many fronts with dangers and threats, both big and

small.  And our world adds their voices of panic to our own internal

ones on a daily basis.  So we can be scared – and often with good

reason.  But that doesn’t mean we can’t be courageous.  In fact, our

mission as children of God depends on us living with courage.  Let’s

look at how David thought this issue through and see if we can learn

from one who has walked this path before us!
