Bold 33 occurrences in 12 translations in the Bible.
Meaning of bold a person, action, or idea) showing an ability to take risks; confident and courageous:
Bold??? What is the trait that sets someone apart? It can be seen at various times and settings. It can be beautiful to witness when it is truly done from the heart... When you are bold you can sometimes feel alone in your stand. Your vulnerability will be shared with the world. How do we take these risks and guard our hearts from ridicule or pain?
Again, my heart placed me in the Bible to find our role models. Here are just a few amazing souls that stepped out in boldness. Abraham, David, Moses, Joshua, Elijah, Daniel, Nehemiah, Peter, James, John, Andrew, Esther, Mary, Mary Magdalene, and a host of others, But of course the most amazing was Jesus. His life was a beautiful BOLD example for all of mankind to follow. However, they all hold a significant commonality ...
When they faced life trials, they had to look deep within themselves and found strength from a LOVE beyond their own comprehension. They could feel the mission in their soul, and as they trusted God the Father, for His strength, His wisdom, His power, and His unfailing LOVE. They accomplished amazing things. Trusting Him is where they received their secret powers. So, hmm
I ask when we wrestle with, how can I do this? What will others think? I do not have the tools? I urge you to dig deep within yourself and pray to your Heavenly Father for guidance... He will be your resources. He will supply you with the tools, and give you the courage to make bold moves. You will feel your strength grow from the LOVE that will fill your heart.
So not only step boldly into who you are but step boldly into who your Heavenly Father knows you can be. Take the risk, growth comes from risk. Do not become stagnate and let fear grip your soul. Life is a beautiful gift and growth is required to live it fully. God will guide you with His heart with His wisdom, and His amazing love. You will emerge stronger and filled with the most inspiring story to share. Once you step out in boldness the new you will be seen as the norm. And hopefully, your story will inspire others to be bold!!
Be Bold in Christ. your strength comes from Him!!
It’s Him, It’s always Him!!!
