Courage

"Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; yea, wait for the Lord!"-Psalm 27:14 RSVCE.

  I wanted to talk about courage.  Partially because I am a coward.  There is a woman, a beautiful woman, that I have been talking to after Mass (she and I go to the same church), and I just want to tell her how beautiful she is.  But, because I am me, I also fear that I may creep her out and scare her off. The verse I shared, it is a good point.  I am waiting for the Lord, it is the being strong and taking courage part I am having issue with.  But I know I am weak and cowardly, I do not take issue with these facts.  The Lord will come (and does come) to me, but what will I do when that happens?  What will you do? I have my consolation in Jesus, but I feel like I am failing to console someone else.  God knows, he knows.  Time will tell. God will see me through whatever the outcome.
