When will I ever get confidence? For years, I’ve tried to get something that should be there. The Lord gave us His Holy Spirit, & yet, I suffer from self esteem issues. What is wrong w/ me? Am I resurrecting the old man? The old man should have been crucified (Romans 6:6). When we are in Christ, we are a new creature & old things are gone (2 Corinthians 5:17). This is His Word. Why can’t I shake off this issue?
For starters, the answer can truly be answered w/ how is my prayer life? Am I praying to the Lord? What am I praying for? Why haven’t I began that consecration that I was so supposed to do earlier? There is my answer. I’m lapsing in the areas that I should be prospering in. There is no such thing as a lazy Christian, but yet, that is what I have become.
I take the time to go to the gym. I take the time to talk to my friends. I take the time to do overtime, & watch sports. Where is my time w/ the Lord? Where is my prayer and watching. “Watch & pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak,” Matthew 26:41.
It’s time to stop lapsing!!!
PS…for those in the struggle w/ me, “I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.” Psalm 139:14. Be bold in the Lord, knowing this.
