Your Quiet Courage

A black and white photo of Galinsoga quadriradiata, a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae which is known by several common names, including shaggy soldier, Peruvian daisy, hairy galinsoga. Its native home is apparently central Mexico, although it has become naturalized in many other places including Nadi, Fiji Islands.

We middle-aged, introverted spinsters are uniquely equipped to stand firm in our faith because we’ve learned our strengths and weaknesses through the years.

Our quiet courage and deep patience, strengthened through years of living in a loud world amongst extroverts, help us remain steadfast through life’s many inevitable trials.

The world is changing. Things will get worse before they get better. We know the ultimate ending when the King returns.

God’s Grace informs our grace and enables our mercy, and in our quiet hours, we storm heaven in prayer for our loved ones, familiar and strangers alike.

Let us answer God’s call to stand firm and, with quiet courage, continue to pray for the Holy Spirit to give us discernment and wisdom for the future. Amen.
