Messy Can't Stop Her
Prayers for courage to avoid failures of kindness
Reflecting on a quote from Brene Brown’s Atlas of the Heart by George Saunders about “failures of kindness”, Judith Kambia Obatusa (JKO) highlights how fear often holds us back from being kind. She explores the courage it takes to show compassion, both to others and ourselves.
Through Scripture and prayer, JKO encourages listeners to seek boldness, trust in God’s strength, and act with kindness even in difficult situations. This episode also includes a special prayer from Psalms 118:8-9 that you can repeat by yourself to help you connect directly to God for courage and strength.
Key scriptures: 2 Corinthians 3:5, Psalm 27:1, Philippians 4:13, Psalm 118:8-9.
