It took a little bravery on the part of our granddaughter to feed the chickens by hand. Some chickens peck a little roughly as they go for the good bits of grain. However, this white Silkie named Tofu was relatively gentle with its pecks. Even so, you might be able to see little bits of cracked corn flying from a recent peck.
Many things in life take a little bravery. But a few things can help ease the strain. One of those things is knowing that Jesus forgives us when we ask, and we have assurance of his love for us. When we know this, we have a glow of joy in our hearts that we can remember when things are rough.
So maybe bravery and joy go together because we face many different challenges. In each of them we can remember that special joy that comes from Jesus.
