You Can Do It!

Week 11: Confidence

You Can Do It!
Mark 9: 23

God never calls us to dwell on our inadequacies. There will always be things we can’t do. But, there will never be anything we can’t do in the moment Jesus asks us to do it. Come boldly to the throne of grace to find grace and help in time of need. It is in the moment, the immediately-I-must-do-this time, that we find out our God is a very, present help in time of trouble.

Don’t just talk to yourself in the face of cravings and appetites and in coming to grips with the ways you are led away from your best by the lures and enticements of sin. Talk to yourself when you are in the grip of God’s grace. The convicting power of the Holy Spirit will capture your attention faster and faster as you progress through these proverbs and as you allow God to speak to through you.
