I used to imagine
that to be brave
meant to run into fear straight on
racing directly into the fire
But time teaches
and slowly, I learn
To be brave is to
fear – less
walk away from fear
one step
at a time
Fear does not diminish, no
there is never less to fear
the world spins on
a pace dizzying to most
hazards seeming to rise at every turn
But there is a hand
always ready to lead me
if I reach, grasp, hold on
then brave in His presence
I shed fear
Jamming with Bonnie where the topic is fearless
and joining Lisa-Jo where today's word is brave
