Your Question:
What if I'm not good enough?
Answer:
My friend, I can sense the weight of discouragement on your shoulders. It's as if the world is telling you that you're not good enough, that your efforts are futile, and that you're destined for failure. But let me tell you, that's a lie. Your worth and value come not from your accomplishments or lack thereof, but from the fact that you are a beloved child of God. You see, when we try to measure our worth by our successes or failures, we're setting ourselves up for a never-ending cycle of disappointment and discouragement. But when we fix our eyes on God, we begin to see that He is the One who gives us our life as a prize, not because of what we've done, but because of who He is. His love and acceptance are not based on our performance, but on His own character and nature. So, my friend, I urge you to stop trying to meet the demands of your natural self, which will only lead to frustration and despair. Instead, abandon yourself to God and trust in His goodness and love. Remember, it's not about being good enough; it's about being loved and accepted by God, regardless of your flaws and failures. As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with feelings of inadequacy, but I've also seen them find freedom and joy in Christ. You can too.
