My Journey of Faith, Family and Frugality

Striving to live in obedience to the One who holds my life in His hands!

It's not about me, it's all about Him!

I truly believe that feelings of inferiority and insecurity are two of the most powerful weapons that the enemy uses to keep God's warriors from being effective and powerful! Trust me, I have been there many times! Too many to count! I'm not good enough to do that God! Why can't I be more like that person? And the list of comments goes on and on!

The problem with these feelings is they are all about me and not about God! Our focus should not be on who we are or what our talents or abilities are, but who God is within us! It is simply about being a willing vessel to be used by Him! We will never be good enough to accomplish the things He wants to accomplish through us! That's kind of the point! It's not for us to get the glory, but Him! So, if it is beyond what I am able to do, it is obvious that it is God!

I think it is time that we stop allowing the enemy to sideline us because we look at ourselves and doubt what WE can accomplish, and step out in faith to the things that God is calling each of us to do and allow GOD to accomplish what He wants to! I challenge you that if you feel God is asking you to do something and you have been afraid that you can't do it, DO IT! We can not allow the fear of failure to hold us back from doing God's mission! He is more than able to do it!

It is not about who we are but whose we are! Christ has already won the victory for us, let's live like it!
