EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:
Am I enough? Does what I have to offer truly hold significance? Will I ever be seen in the way I desire or achieve the big dreams planted in my heart? Am I bold enough in my walk with Christ?
These questions are not mine alone, and many of us share in this struggle for validation and approval. It’s easy to find ourselves trapped in “approval addictions,” battling against things that weigh us down.
– The comparison trap
– A lack of confidence
– Feelings of inadequacy in our appearance, intelligence, and aging
– Uncertain about our true identity
– A deep-seated need for the approval of others
– The pressure to prove our worthiness or holiness
– A fear that breaks down our boldness
But this is just confusion, a place to keep us from seeing ourselves through God’s eyes. God defines who we are today and shapes our future. And in Ephesians 2:10: “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” 📖
What God calls for, His grace will provide. Courage is born in the moments we confront our fears, as promised in Isaiah 41:10: “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” 💪
Every mess can be transformed into a powerful message. Each struggle you face is an opportunity for growth and testimony.
PLEASE KEEP GOING! Have courage and remember who you are. God sees your heart and says that YOU ARE ENOUGH! 🦋❤️
