#14 Confidence

 
To “be confident” really means to believe in God, firstly, and then to believe in the gifts / abilities and callings that God has put in you. I love the scripture that says for God's gifts and his call are irrevocable” in Romans 11:29. What this means, to the believer, is that God has given each one of us specific gifts and talents, which He will NEVER take away.

For many, this means that some of these gifts are lying dormant, waiting to be unlocked and used. For others it may mean that you can be confident in this: God HAS given you specific gifts and calling and that no matter how often how fail, you will always have them. This fact gives us tremendous confidence in our God, who trusts us with these and endorses us to be a carrier of them saying “I believe in you, that you’ll represent me well as you use the gifts I've given you. No matter how many times you fail, get up and try again. Together we’ll make a difference.” The other aspect of this is truth is that God Himself is our confidence. He alone can be trusted. He alone is faithful and will do all His will in His time, while using us. Go for it and be CONFIDENT !!

Happy Leading
