You Make Me Brave

Recently, I've been loving and enjoying Bethel Music's newest album You Make Me Brave. And since this blog's called She Laughs Without Fear, laughing without fear and being brave go in hand. In both, it's more about the Lord than it is about me. Bethel's music leads me to worship the Lord. 

So I thought I would share another song from the album that I enjoy, and it's the title song, "You Make Me Brave". 

I stand before You now
The greatness of your renown
I have heard of the majesty and wonder of you
King of Heaven, in humility, I bow

As your love, in wave after wave
Crashes over me, crashes over me
For You are for us
You are not against us
Champion of Heaven
You made a way for all to enter in

I have heard you calling my name
I have heard the song of love that You sing
So I will let You draw me out beyond the shore
Into Your grace
Your Grace

You make me brave
You make me brave

And the chorus goes on. You make me brave. Sometimes when I'm feeling really fearful and afraid, the hardest thing to remember is that the Lord is the one that makes me brave. The greatness of His renown. His majesty and wonder. His love. Champion of Heaven. He is for us and not against us. He made a way for all to enter in. His grace. So many beautiful reminders of why I never have to be afraid. 

In the end, I cannot make myself brave. It's God working within me that enables me brave. We have nothing to fear when the God of the universe is for us and not against us. He wants what's best for us.  

Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one that takes refuge in him. 
Psalm 34:8

His Word, His Truth, helps me trust Him and it makes me brave.
