5 Truths for Every Woman's Heartਨਮੂਨਾ

God Gives You Holy Confidence

For years, I tried to prove I was enough. Perfect enough. Good enough. Experienced enough. Smart enough. Pretty enough. But it’s only when we come to the place where we can finally say, “I’m not enough but Jesus is” that our hearts get free.

The reality is we will always fall short of the expectations of others and ourselves. But it doesn’t matter because our extraordinary God, our gracious Savior, declares we are beloved and chosen and empowered anyway.

The world tells us we need to have self-esteem, but what we really need is holy confidence.

Self-esteem says we can do anything we want.

Holy confidence says we can do all things through Christ.

Self-esteem says we can belong in the right crowd.

Holy confidence says we belong to the Creator of the universe.

Self-esteem says our worth comes from what’s external.

Holy confidence says our worth comes from what’s eternal.

We are daughters of God, created in his image. We are chosen to be part of his plan. We are promised that we will have everything we need for all he has called us to do. We have been forgiven and set free. This is the source of our hope. This is our security. This is why in spite of our weaknesses and failures, we can walk in holy confidence today.

God, thank you for offering me so much more than self-esteem. Help me walk in holy confidence today.
