Where is Your Confidence?
The Bible doesn't tell us to believe in ourselves. It teaches us to believe in God. Why?
Because God is all powerful, all knowing, ever present, and never changes. God is good. God is merciful. God is on your side. Focus on the great things He has already accomplished in your life.
Psalm 118:8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in men.
God moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform;
He plants His footsteps in the sea
And rides upon the storm
Deep in unfathomable mines
Of never-failing skill
He treasures up His bright designs
And works His sovereign will
The fearful saints, fresh courage take;
The clouds ye so much dread
Are big with mercy and shall break
In blessings on your head
William Cowper 1779
Psalm 27:1 The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
