Are you feeling down, empty, and afraid? Well, don’t be. Life is full of wonders and miracles. If you are a Christian, you know the miracles that God may give you. He will shower you with His blessings and give you strength. All you need to do is to be BRAVE, KIND, and BETTER.

What does the Bible say about courage? Courage is also referred to in scripture as “good cheer,” meaning boldness and trust. God commands us throughout the Bible not to be afraid, to be joyful, and to have courage in our lives.

Occasionally, we doubt our own strength and faith, but we may turn to scripture for motivation to live in good cheer and trust in God.

We should be able to conquer our fears and live a life full of courage with the help and guidance of God. It is God who orders us to be brave because that means having faith and trust in Him. We can find the courage that God wants us to have through scripture.

  1. You will find examples and suggestions in this series of verses to demonstrate BRAVERY in the face of adversity.

Final Thought:

Being brave, kind, and a better person can’t be acquired overnight. It will need a lot of courage, willingness and pure heart. If you find it difficult to be brave, just look at the Christian quotes and verses. You can find your courage as long as you believe that you can do all things through the God who strengthens you.

Being kind doesn’t mean that you should always be good to everyone; it can somehow be shown in different ways. You can be kind by sharing, loving, and caring for someone and helping them unconditionally.

If you do all these things, you can be the BETTER person you ought to be.

We hope these verses strengthen your spirit and encourage you to take on the world in a righteous manner! Be BRAVE! Be Kind! Be a BETTER You!
