Courage Can Ask for Company

Joshua 1:9
Haven’t I commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be dismayed, for Yahweh your God is with you wherever you go.”
Joshua received a call to courage together with the assurance that God would be with him. Biblical courage is not solitary bravado. It can include preparation, trusted companions, and honest acknowledgment of danger. Think of a challenge ahead. Who could offer wise support, and what preparation would make your next action more grounded? Asking for company can itself be courageous.
Today’s prayer
God who goes with me, replace isolation with faithful companionship. Help me prepare well, seek wise support, and act without pretending I am fearless. Amen.
