Self Confidence Comes From Jesus Confidence

“You can do it”

“You’ve got this”

“Just believe in yourself”

 

Most of us have seen or heard these comments sometime in our lives. And while they look good on the surface, they are not the Truth.

 

Let me explain…

 

Especially in the West, we grow up in the bigger picture culture where having confidence in our own ability is a thing we treasure. It’s all about “you can be anything you want to be”. It’s a beautiful collective motivating factor, but it can lead us to believe that ‘if it’s to be, it’s up to me’.

 

But when we look at the beautiful invitation Jesus gives us to say, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”, we realize that there is SO much more to life than what we can do in our own strength.

 

As you listen to or watch today’s episode, you’ll see a super practical way to remember to ’stay in Jesus’ (I call it ‘Jello Jesus’ ;-)). Jesus-confidence is just so much more fun than self-confidence ever could be.

 

As always Jesus is inviting you on an adventure today. Will you accept?
