Answer 1

Answer 2

In this passage, During a moment of insecurity, Job is lacking in his courage. God speaks to him about a creature who has strength of true courage in facing fear and adversity. He basically tells Job to be like the horse...face fear and adversity head on and never doubt or look back: Job 39:19-25 "Do you give the horse his strength or clothe his neck with a flowing mane? Do you make him leap like a locust, striking terror with his proud snorting? He paws fiercely, rejoicing in his strength, and charges into the fray. He laughs at fear, afraid of nothing; he does not shy away from the sword. The quiver rattles against his side, along with the flashing spear and lance. In frenzied excitement he eats up the ground; he cannot stand still when the trumpet sounds. At the blast of the trumpet he snorts, 'Aha!' He catches the scent of battle from afar, the shout of commanders and the battle cry." EDIT: Very moving compilation on YouTube. Great song, really tugs at the soul. I don't know when that movie will be out but I do hope that they provide boxes of tissues along with tickets. I know I'll need at least a box. Just seeing the compilation and remembering that day has brought tears to my eyes that I'm having trouble stopping. 10 years ago, yet I feel at this very moment so much of the anguish, fear, loss, and pain as I did that day,,,a pain that will scar over but will never heal. EDIT2: Yes, on that day, those who risked all they had to give to save others in peril were, indeed, like the horse heading bravely into battle. They faced a different type of battle but a battle all the same.

Answer 6

sorry- i'm not sure if this in in the bible- i'm mormon so it might be the book of mormon- "if ye obey my commandments and endure to the end, ye shall have eternal like. Which gift is the greatest of all the gifts of God." So yeah- it's worth being strong- you will be rewarded in the end.

(Hebrews 13:5b,6). Trials develop godly character. "...we exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; and perseverance, proven character, and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us...
