Every day presents new evidence of the reality that we live in a microwave society. Most things that we desire materialistically are only a credit card swipe away from our immediate disposal. For the most part I consider myself to be a conservative well-grounded individual, yet periodically I find myself drawn to the lures of the "gotta have it now" mentality. Many attach their very self-confidence to their ability to acquire superficial possessions. A question to consider is how do we feel about ourselves when we are stripped of all the superficial things that give us place in a materialistic world?
True confidence is the fruit of knowing and embracing who you are in Christ. One of the greatest joys is waking up each morning with peace in knowing that because you are seeking God's will, each moment of your day will be filled with opportunities to fulfill your God-given purpose. Confidence is the ability to embrace everything about the person God created you to be. Regardless of the imperfections the world may see, knowing that you are a work in progress and that through Christ even your flaws can be used for his glory makes every day a more promising. This week begin to walk with confidence! You're God's child! Act like it!!! Have a great weekend!!
