THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

BE CONFIDENT IN THE PERSON GOD HAS CALLED YOU TO BE

MANY individuals struggle with self-identity, often seeking the approval of OTHERS to feel better about THEMSELVES. This leads to a life of pleasing OTHERS, conforming to THEIR expectations for acceptance. People may present themselves DIFFERENTLY to their boss, spouse, and FRIENDS.

To truly ENJOY life, one must embrace confidence in their UNIQUE identity as created by GOD. Recognizing one’s ANOINTING to be the person God has called THEM to be allows for resistance to external pressures to CONFORM. Independence from the opinions and approval of OTHERS preserves individual CREATIVITY. God has created EACH person with a DISTINCT purpose. Growing in one’s relationship with God through PRAYER, worship, and FELLOWSHIP cultivates confidence in HIM, LIBERATING one from the need for HUMAN approval and ENABLING them to fulfill their God-given DESTINY.

Today’s Scripture:

I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed, I do not even judge myself.

1 Corinthians 4:3, NIV
