For the man who is wondering what courage looks like...

Maximilian Kolbe reminds us that being a strong man isn't about protecting your own comfort at all costs. Sometimes strength means stepping forward when it's easier to step back, carrying someone else's burden when you're already tired, and choosing sacrifice when nobody is watching.

You may never face the kind of persecution Kolbe faced, but you face opportunities to lay down your life every day.

It may mean putting your family's needs before your own.
Choosing patience when you're frustrated.
Showing up for a friend who's struggling.
Serving when you feel overlooked.
Standing for what is right when staying silent would be easier.
Giving your time when you're already stretched thin.

Christian manhood isn't measured only by what you accomplish. It's also measured by what you're willing to give for the good of others.

Ask yourself today:

Who has God placed around me that needs me to step forward instead of step back?
