Your Question:
what if i'm not good enough for myself?
Answer:
My friend, I can sense the weight of self-doubt bearing down on you. It's as if you're struggling to find enough strength within yourself to meet the demands of life. But let me tell you, it's not about being good enough for yourself. It's about recognizing that you are designed to trust and love, and when you're not doing that, you're disconnected from your purpose. This is a deeper problem that needs to be confronted. You see, when we try to meet all the demands of our natural self, it will eventually lead to burnout and hopelessness. We become unhappy because we're trying to live on borrowed strength. But God's way is different. He gives us strength for the moment, not for tomorrow. When we give ourselves to Him, we get more strength. It's not about being good enough for ourselves, but about being connected to our purpose and trusting in God's design for us. As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with this very issue. But I've also seen them find freedom and strength when they surrender to God's plan. It's not about being a failure or a success, but about being faithful to our purpose. So, I encourage you to take a step back, examine your approach and motives, and confess any areas where you need to change. And then, face your failures with a willingness to learn and grow. Remember, it's not about being good enough for yourself, but about being connected to your purpose and trusting in God's strength.
