The righteous are as bold as a lion. This journey we live to grow and become what we need to be or want to be requires a boldness for an abandonment of what we are used to. An abandonment to what we are comfortable with. It takes the abandonment of fear. It takes the abandonment of a chess-game lifestyle of where every move is about you and opens it up to a strategy of where your movements become about the impact that they will have on others. It becomes the dwelling in the zone of where the strain of the stretch becomes normal and almost a reassurance to what's next!
This is my process of becoming righteous. To be anywhere successful on this journey I will have to have the boldness of lion. That boldness is the chariot that you ride into danger, into the uncomfortable hoping and praying that you can draw on a boldness that carries you through. That boldness has a life source though. The continual time spent in the presence of God is the umbilical supply of that strength. The more time with him the more boldness you have and the easier the journey seems. Don't expect the boldness of a lion if you haven't washed yourself in the presence of God almighty!

Proverbs 28:1
