January 2017: Virtue of the month: COURAGE

Virtue of the Month: COURAGE

COURAGE is having the strength to do what we need to do

COURAGE is when we go ahead when we are afraid

COURAGE is needed where there are things we have to change, especially if we know it will affect other people and there is a possibility that they won't like what we are doing.

There are many different kinds of true courage:
     -Courage that stays cool and calm in troubled times
     -Courage that stands up for what is right
     -Courage of acting according to you faith in God
     -Courage of trusting yourself and refusing to follow the crowd when the crowd is wrong



Another name for COURAGE is FORTITUDE. It is one of the gifts of the Holy Spirit, so you have it. Do you use it?

In your own words, write one sentence that says what courage is.

Give three reasons why courage is important.

Name two people you think have shown courage and say why.

Name three instances when the virtue of COURAGE is needed.

Jesus once said to his disciples who were caught in stormy waters in a boat:

Have COURAGE, it is I.
