Fearing to Fear

Above all, be strong and very courageous to carefully observe the whole instruction My servant Moses commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right or the left, so that you will have success wherever you go.
Joshua 1:7 HCSB

Being strong and courageous takes... well courage. When God shows us a path or gives us a word to follow, fearing to fear and following in faith is important.

Today I had my first session of my next uni course. It is an online course and my teacher is Asian and I struggle with her accent. Then we have an Aussie who keeps butting in and an Indian who decides to illuminate us on a point. The Indian accent is particularly hard for me. To top it off we had students coming and going and the chat box full of chatter. Ahhhhhh! I wanted to quit... but I stayed and convinced myself to hang in and do the study, pass the exam and move on. I love the study but the online forum is bedlam to me. (Showing my age).

Perseverance in a path involves ensuring all manner of difficulty but soldiering on.my relationship with the Lord will be more intense as I cling to Him for clarity. He loves this and so I press on.
