PURPOSEFUL LIVING

“I’m not good enough.”
“Why me?”
“I can never do anything right.”
“I can’t speak in front of a big group.”

These statements sound familiar and we sometimes think of ourselves that way. But interestingly, your self-image may not be an accurate reflection of who you really are, but it is how you perceive yourself.

Everyone has an image of himself or herself. The important question is, does your image of who you are line up correctly with who God says you are?

Because God created you, you are His wonderful masterpiece.
God sees you as special and unique.
He regards you as a strong, courageous, successful, overcoming person.
He always causes us to triumph.
God sees you as a champion.

So start by agreeing with God.
Don’t focus on your weaknesses; focus on God’s view of us.
Learn to guard your mind.
Control your thought life, and dwell on the lovely things God said of us.

God has put incredible gifts and talents within you, ready for use as you start seeing them from God’s view. So step out in faith and act on the dreams and desires He has placed in your heart.

Yours for Purposeful Living
