Courage

In his book The Courage To Create, Rollo May claimed that there are four types of courage:

Physical- in which the body perseveres despite the very difficult and some times painful circumstances.
Moral- which will demand a person to stand up to and even against the social injustices of their day at the risk of tainting their status.
Social-where a soul is willing to reveal oneself counting intimate relationships worthy.
Creative-when a mind crosses the lines of the 'norm' and embraces new ideas or revives old ones

As I pondered these definitions of courage I was able to discover ordinary people within my circles that have gone beyond fear and defied death at times to experience the riches that God would have for their lifetime.

What kind of courage do you practice?
