I was like Elizabeth when I was young and I still have those feelings for the underdog . GOD stood by my side and help me have the courage that was needed all during my life and HE is still there to encourage me. This brought tears to my eyes and they rolled down my cheeks, as many memories came to my mind but it also brought peace to my heart. I Thank GOD for giving us HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON,
In this world…it takes courage, always, when we have to do the right and natural…as from the beginning…God created everything…
If we don’t try to be an exemple…how ever this state of things will change?
It takes courage
To refrain from gossip
When others delight in it,
To stand up for the absent person
Who is being abused.
It takes courage
To live honestly
Within your means,
And not dishonestly
On the means of others.
It takes courage
To be a REAL man or a TRUE woman,
To hold fast to your ideals
When it causes you
To be looked upon
As strange and peculiar.
It takes courage
To be talked about,
And remain silent,
When a word would justify you
In the eyes of others,
But which you dare not speak
Because it would injure another.
It takes courage
To refuse to do something
That is wrong
Although everyone else
May be doing it
With attitudes as carefree
As a summer song.
It takes courage
To live according
To your own convictions,
To deny yourself
What you cannot afford.
To love your neighbor
As yourself!
I always stood by the “underdog.” I knew what it felt like. I was laughed at for standing up for my clean values. I stood straight and tall when defending someone who was being picked on. I am a small person, but I guess my determination had them back off as they sensed that I meant it. I still stand by them, even to this day. GOD always is with me and I appreciate His standing by me. Thank you GOD, always. Have courage for your convictions everyone… Love ya’
Carry on with spreading the word of our saviour Jesus Christ. tell 3 people you love and care and have them tell 3 people and so on down the line. Its amazing how quick all will be loved and cared for by our heavenly father.
Take Courage, What some big words these are. Within love, hate, dislike or just plain being mean to others less than we.
What really takes courage is doing to others what you want done to yourself. Then the shoes are on the other feet then and see how and what it feels like.
Best is always love others as you would want them to love you.
Love of God is number one.
What you say and what you don’t say are both important. Proper speech is not only saying the right words at the right time,but also controlling your desire to say what you shouldn’t.Our Words should be honest and well chosen. We need to remember that what we say affects others.
We must have courage and put our faith in God, who controls everything. Because God is Love and his love for us is eternity.
it takes courage to swallow every rebuke thrown to us most especially if it comes from someome who is the only mean of our being; for said words to that effect becomes perceivable that we just have to accept from their own point of view that we have no control of.
i would rather be hated for what I am than to be loved for what I am NOT!
Carry on my friends. We can still help change the world through Him who constantly with us. He’ll never leaver or forsake us.
Take care and God be with us all the time, events and situations of our lives. Keep holding on!
you may thing what you are doing is not creating impact in this world we are living in but you know what, it is not true the world needs people like you bravo more grace to you
I agree with the above statement I was going to talk about what i am going through with my life right now but i’ve just realized its not necessary after reading this…….. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS WHO EVER WROTE THIS IT TRULEY LIGHTEN UP MY DAY.
Its great,I was about to say so much about what am going through in life right now but I’ve realised its NOT necessary at all.Whoever wrore it”Thank You indeed” and God bless You as you continue to brighten the lifes of others.

Thank you,I need lot’s of courage at this time in my life .This is very powerful if we all could all be like this what a greater world this would be.I pray that I CAN BE AS STRONG AS THESE WORDS.Thank’s for such a great message.
there is such a great messsage in this writing, causes one to dig for their own flaws and search for answers of correction. We all fall short no matter how hard we try to avoid the pit falls.
Really i takes courage and love to keep all the words in the peom, but with God, we can do it. This words are soul-searching, each of us should know where we have missed it and make amends. God bless u all, and to you Nethug, keep with up, we appreaciate you guys!!!.
sincerely speaking ,i believe that only courage can see us through all tough times in our life as in life ,it’s all struggling and risking our lives.this poem is wow!
Felt the courage and inspiration seeping in on reading these beautiful words.
NetHugs, what’s the matter with the old format? After I shut a card, the standby appears when I click on a new card. I am forced to shut down and start all over again. It’s very troublesome….Please look into the matter.
The poem is axactly right for love id faithful, loyal, sincere and
always being there for the ones who need you. We as people may not always be able to do for everyone but we can do some kind deed
for at least one person every day.
to read the words of this poem is to think real hard about what is said. teach your children to love each other is a good thing no matter what color your skin is.for what is color anyway
the heart should tell you to love one another is devine, so next time you see a man starving on the street buy or make him a sandwich he will tell you thank you and he may think about getting out of the gutter and making something of himself again if you show him you care
IT IS EASY TO BE RIGHT ON PAPER. WHO IS RIGHT WHEN THINGS GO OUT OF GEAR?
THIS POEM SHOWS A HEART OF COMPASSION AND GODS LOVE.
CAN WE KEEP OUR MOUTHS SHUT WHEN WE HAVE TO TAKE THE BLAME FOR ANOTHERS MISTAKE.?
ONLY LOVE SAYS”LET YOUR WILL BE DONE ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN
GOD BLES S ALL WHO READ AND TAKE ON BOARD THE WONDERFUL WORDS WE HAVE JUST READ. MAY GOD BLESS YOU RICHLY.

It Takes Courage (Text Version)
It takes courage
To refrain from gossip
When others delight in it,
To stand up for the absent person
Who is being abused.
It takes courage
To live honestly
Within your means,
And not dishonestly
On the means of others.
It takes courage
To be a REAL man or a TRUE woman,
To hold fast to your ideals
When it causes you
To be looked upon
As strange and peculiar.
It takes courage
To be talked about,
And remain silent,
When a word would justify you
In the eyes of others,
But which you dare not speak
Because it would injure another.
It takes courage
To refuse to do something
That is wrong
Although everyone else
May be doing it
With attitudes as carefree
As a summer song.
It takes courage
To live according
To your own convictions,
To deny yourself
What you cannot afford.
To love your neighbor
As yourself!

To maintain streat the spinal columm,
Not abandon the good sense and the plumb,
In this world ful of nonsense and wrong…
