Believing In Yourself

I find in my experience ministering to others believing in yourself is a big obstacle for all of us. Those who have had a life where this isn’t an issue is very blessed indeed since most have to overcome the problem.

We all have at some extent not believing in something and it goes for in ourselves as well. The problem is often we have been criticized by others especially those close to us that we can’t possibly do that much.

The important thing for us to do is forgive first those who have hurt, criticized us and not help us believe in ourselves. After forgiving them we must forgive ourselves for believing the lie that we are not good enough.

Forgiveness in this way is not to get them or ourselves off the hook but to give us freedom especially to do the purposes we are meant to do. We may be involved in our purposes however we can do even greater things with true freedom and believing in ourselves.

It is a work in progress to get us where we need to be. So forgive and believe in yourself. We will be amazed how much farther we can go.
