"I'm Not Good Enough"

Some of us have that voice of criticism. Maybe when you were a kid, you were told, "you're not good enough", "you'll never be good enough", "why can't you be more like your sister"; and that has so much power over you, any time you go to do something powerful in your life, you can't get that voice out of your head.

This past Wednesday, guest pastor Darin Weiss discussed how our fear of criticism, our fear of rejection, and our fear of not living up, gets in the way of our Christian walk.

We begin to look to other things in order to fill us; to make us acceptable. The scariest thing about those things that we hold on to, that we think make us acceptable, is that they don't work; they don't matter! We could be living for things that one day, on our deathbed, we're left thinking, "I have lived for a bunch of things that don't even matter".

It's one thing to confess Christ, that He lived for us, He died for us, He rose from the dead for us; but it's another thing to understand how that applies to our life on a daily basis.
