The Power of Believing

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. - Philippians 4:13

Remember Man of Steel? Clark Kent having to cope up with his own identity converse with her mother saying, “What’s wrong with me Mom?” She replied, ‘There is nothing wrong with you son, everything about you is beautiful.” Clark grows in confidence because someone believes in him and was able to fulfill his role.

It takes only one person to believe to make someone do the impossible. The bible is also filled with stories of men and women inspiring one another. Joseph did the impossible (protecting and raising a family in a very difficult and challenging situations), because aside from believing in God, Mary believed in him. Joseph being fully aware of Mary’s full support led them with confidence.

It just takes one look, one pat on the back, one voice of affirmation to give someone a boost of confidence. No doubt why we have so much confidence when we are with God, just one look, one pat on the back, one voice of affirmation from Him make us do all things. God believes in us! He believes in our capabilities and this gives us confidence to do all things for Him.

So when we ask it ourselves, “What’s wrong with me Lord?” He will answer from the Song of Songs 4:7, “Everything about you is beautiful, and there is nothing at all wrong with you.”

  1. I hope you will always remember this at times when you feel disheartened. You have acted as a leader, coach, mentor and cheerleader to other people for years, yet sometimes you forget your worth. You question your abilities. Alam ko dumadating ang oras na tinatanong mo ang sarili mo kung tama ba ang mga desisyon mo o kinukwesyon ang kakayahan mo. That is the evil one deceiving you. My prayer for you is for Papa God to protect you, to always remind you that He values you and your contributions to your mission.

    God bless you!
