  1. Q4. Why are we so afraid to obey God when he puts on our heart to do something decisive? Our sinful nature allows us to be afraid of failure - our human nature does not want to fail. It's easier to be a follower than a leader who has to be decisive when making decisions for others. How are we to deal with fear when we feel it? I think fear is something we all have to deal with at some point in our life - depending on what that fear is and the circumstance can be very trying on an individual - the best way to deal with fear is to take it to the Lord and ask for His guidance and strength. What is the relationship of fear to courage? I think fear can lead to courage with God's help - If you think through all the life experiences you have in life, many times fear could stop you in its tracks, but with God's help one can overcome the fear and move on and gain the courage to do the same as similar situations appear. Why is courage required in leaders and disciples? As my dictionary states - "Courage, bravery, fortitude, will, and intrepidity, is the ability to confront fear, pain, risk/danger, uncertainty, or intimidation." As a leader you will find the need for courage to make decisive decisions with some uncertainty and risk involved. Those of us who are believers and serve the Lord in positions of leadership may have to display courage in trying times and make the right decisions with God's help.

  3. Q3. (Exodus 4:13-14a) Why is God angry with Moses? After all that God has reassured Moses that he will be with him, given him the signs to perform for the Elders, Moses still says "O Lord, please send someone else to do it." What is Moses
