Low Self-Esteem, Past Mistakes and No Faith: Three Reasons Why You Are Not Doing Well Today
Ξ January 12th, 2009 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Self-improvement:Spiritual |
Most people just accept bad conditions as a normal part of life. For them our existence is a drab sequence of events with hopefully some splashes of color every now and then.
But is success and happiness really just reserved for some lucky few?
Not really. God designed each human being with a unique combination of gifts and talents to live in a perfect plan He has already laid out for us.
This plan is not boring or sacrificial, but an exciting adventure that does not include lack, fear and depression.
Here are the three main obstacles that are holding us back from the fulfilled life we so yearn to have.
1. Past Mistakes
Many people live so much in their past that they forget the present and the future. Memories of past failures and sad events in their lives are constantly pulling them back into a sad existence of self-condemnation and even bitterness.
The best thing any person in this condition can do is run to God to receive His love, forgiveness, strength, joy and power to forget.
2. Low Self-Esteem
People that lack self-esteem have their thought life messed up. They believe they are less worthy than others and are therefore not entitled to receive much.
That is a lie that comes straight from hell: God is the Creator of every human being and He does not create failures! For Him each and every person is precious and unique.
What’s more, He wants to pour out His love on us and show us the victorious way of living He predestined us for.
3. No Faith
A person that has not established an unshakable belief system in his or her life, lacks the necessary foundation to overcome the difficult issues of life.
Faith in God and in what Jesus did for you will help you overcome when life is telling you to give up trying.
