Bulidng Character

so this week in class we have been talking about buliding character. We were asked how do you want to grow in your charcater. for me it is like this i want to have courage to stand strong in the lord and really be able to step out in faith and serve the lord. I really feel like i am insecure in myself and want to be stronger. this morning in my quiet time i read in 2 kings 18-19 How King Hezekiah was pressed by the asyrians and they were telling him how they were going to conquer his city but he kept the faith and God provided for him. he did not back done, and that is what i want for my life to stand up for what i belive in and not be ashamed to share the gospel. I know that i let be conquer me with words or just talking about me but not anymore iwant to be able to step up and get  ready for the  battle and allow God to work through me.
