Are You Battling Insecurity?
 
May you be founded securely on love.  Ephesians 3:17 
 
Are you battling insecurity? If so, reflect on these ten Scriptural truths about yourself: (1) I know God loves me and that He has a great plan for my life (2) Yes, I’ve faults, but God’s working on me, changing me day by day; while He does, I can still enjoy my life (3) I realize I’ll always have issues to deal with, so I won’t be discouraged when God convicts me of areas that still need improvement (4) Everybody has weaknesses, so I’m not a failure because I’m not perfect (5) I want people to like me, but my sense of worth isn’t dependent on them. No, Jesus has already proven my worth by dying for me (6) I refuse to be controlled or manipulated by others. Even if they reject me I’ll survive, for Jesus has promised never to leave me nor forsake me (7) No matter how often I fail I won’t give up, because God is with me, to strengthen and sustain me (8) I like myself. I don’t like everything I do and I want to change, but I refuse to reject myself because God loves and accepts me as I am (9) In myself I may be nothing, but in Christ I’m everything I need to be (10) I matter to God. My life makes a difference. Regardless of the challenge, ‘I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me’ (Philippians 4:13). As you reflect daily on these principles, you’ll be amazed at how differently you begin to feel about yourself!
 
Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me to daily realize that you love me and are working on my life – and that you accept and love me through the whole process until I reach perfection some day with you in eternity.  Thank you – and it is in your name that I pray.  Amen
