1 Kings 17:1-24; Jeremiah 29:1-32; Philemon 1:1-25

Be of good courage, and let us behave ourselves valiantly for our people. 1 Chronicles 19:13

The small town where I live has recently honoured three of its sons who were awarded the Victoria Cross for acts of bravery during the two world wars. To commemorate this fact, name signs were erected at all the road entry points to the town which not only names the town but has an added description to define its heritage—“A Town of Courage.” To live a victorious Christian life great courage is required. The apostle Paul behaved in such a courageous way in the face of adversity that it set a valiant example for us to follow. —Brian Powlesland

He who would valiant be ‘gainst all disaster,
Let him in constancy follow the Master. —John Bunyan
