BOLDNESS

Be Bold by Having Nothing to Hide By: Leroy Brownlow copyright 1974

“Conscience does make cowards of all,” declared Shakespeare. But when you haven’t faulted or defaulted, you can be bold. You won’t flinch when associates speak of an object that was stolen – you didn’t take it. You won’t blush when friends speak of some ugly gossip that was started – you had nothing to do with it. You won’t cringe when someone knocks on the door – you haven’t wronged anybody. You won’t run when a policeman stops in front of your house – you know he is not after you.

This is more manly than seeking cover at the shuffle of every leaf. Having nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear. Unafraid, you can look every man in the eye.

Oh! How courage strengthens! And oh! How much we need it.

Proverbs 28:1, 1:33, 13:15

Jay’s Thoughts on “Be Bold by Having Nothing to Hide”

How easy it is to bend the truth to conform to the situation. How easy to give an inch when attempting to hold the long mile. True courage is quite, strong and constant. Such courage is based upon the knowledge that truth, honor and action conquer fear in all its forms. Being Bold are the actions justified by true courage earned honestly. Live right, be bold and have no fear.
