There have been times in my life where I have considered myself unworthy.
While I have never felt unworthy of the gift of eternal life, I have sent God messages that I felt unworthy of the things he has given me.
A wonderful husband
Two beautiful girls
An amazing career
It's not like I say "God, I am unworthy of these things you have given me", I consider myself unworthy when I doubt my abilities in these areas. I consider myself unworthy when I make mistakes and feel like I can't get it right. Doubt comes when I don't trust in him fully.
Ok, so that was a light bulb moment.
I doubt myself when I don't trust in him fully.
Doubting myself reflects me questioning him and his power and goodness.
YIKES!
Being worthy means trusting in God and the abilities he has given me through his grace and love. When I doubt the power of the Holy Spirit, I am sending the message that God must have gotten it wrong with me or a certain area of my life.
When I am sharing his word I don't want people to look at me and see doubt. I want to be strong in my faith so others can see that while I may be unsure of what God's plans are for me, I know that he will provide and his will for me will be done.
Prayer Request:
Tomorrow we will be traveling to GA for my sisters wedding. There are many concerns here that I don't feel comfortable sharing. Please pray for my family but more specifically for my sister and this union she is about to enter in. Pray that God will work in these two lives. Thanks so much!
