You lead me beside still waters.

And,

I can walk On Top of Storming waters!

The first statement details a safe place where sheep (those who need to be led) feel Comfortable.

The second statement speaks of having an intense Singular ability to Focus and Be Determined to Follow (Go After) their Comfort Instead of Being led (made willing to go) into Comfort.

In Context, Comfort is to give strength - our effort and energy; and hope, which is the motive for giving our efforts and energy; to an idea, situation, or person.*

The characteristics of Comfort point to the means, motives, and intentions for the when, how, why, and wherewithal - the principle value - of a thing.

Simply, We Tend to Focus Our Attention on finding 'What is Worthy of Valor (Courage)' as the reason for giving effort, energy, and our life to a venture.

Okay

Don't mistake my tone as an appeal to say, "DON'T BE SHEEP!" To be clear, I understand that In Life, a sheep's disposition, as an analogy, gives a perspective on Conquering (Gaining Mastery) from Humility (Liberty within Limits).

From this viewpoint, Humility is to live in a state of "freedom from pride."* Following this path, Freedom can be the "absence of coercion."* or "Not giving Attention to compelling urges!" So Humility is a Creed - system of belief - and not a character trait!

Sheep adhere to the Shepherd's Creed. Therefore, the rules of engaging the sheepfold are structured from the principles that govern the Author of its design.

Paying Attention to the pattern develops the skills to Trust Discipline's Directions. Simply, The Endurance to Trust the Process. Learning to live and build with our natural limitations while surrounded by enemies and opposing "friends and loved ones" at our table—a concept well developed and understood by King David, a former shepherd.

In contrast, we are NEVER TO BE Another sheep's sheep. We're NOT qualified to BE for Others WHAT WE DON'T HAVE for Ourselves—morally speaking.

The Second Statement

There are moments in space to be trained under the mighty hand of Humility. Courage shares Equal Points in Time! To be Courageous is to have the "mental or moral strength to venture, persevere, and withstand danger, fear, or difficulty."* Impossible to do without Humility!

Humility gives us awareness of who and what we are by realizing the resources available, like the people, places, and things presently accessible.

Courage is a Demonstration of Effort by Entrusting Credit or Intentionally confiding in a trustworthy reputation!

Courage is developed in our minds. Our Idea of resolving solutions caters to the suggested concepts we'll choose to conceive as courageous expressions. So our Source of Comfort Needs to Be the Same in All situations.

As established earlier, the concept of Comfort is the Give our Efforts to the Idea of Hope - a promised or suggested outcome we Value. In the biggest picture, there are only two Concepts of value. Truth and Justice or our version of it. From a biblical perspective, God or money.

GOD: Source of First Principle Value;

Money: Our means for establishing what we value.

If arranged in the proper Order. Truth and Justice will be the Source of Value, giving us unlimited Capital from the Offspring of legitimate Currency. Or, from a biblical perspective, Have Faith In God, The Father (First Cause, The Principal), and Son (First Law, The Principal's Principle) by The Comforter, The Holy Spirit, The THOUGHT that Governs The ARCHITECT of the design.

Concluding

To cut it short, I'll round up to the point. Humility + Courage produces the Means and Opportunity to Accomplish "The Good" in Life while Living Well throughout every season and moment in space.

I perceive this thought while meditating on this subject:

I have to lead my life from my subconscious. That's how I Consciously Follow my Intelligence. Becoming One with My Self and CREED!
