Brave?

Over the past few weeks, I keep hearing this word in reference to me and my upcoming mission: Brave.

I'm not sure why people keep using that word.  I don't feel brave. I don't necessarily view my upcoming mission as dangerous or that going on a mission like this as something courageous.  I am surely not "a brave solider."

I am a person.  A person who feels that she is being called to do something by God.  God is a loving God and He is leading me to this.  I trust that it will not be dangerous because He will be there for me to protect me.

Therefore, I am not brave.
I am not courageous.
I am a child of God.
