Let me know what you think!

Do you feel like a loser? Do you wonder why I should even try? Do you tell yourself I will never make it?

During this episode, I will explain how feelings of failure can’t be trusted. You will learn how to replace your feelings of inadequacy with truth. I will share how you can depend on the promises found in God’s word – the Bible.

Your shaky feelings of failure can be changed to unwavering dependence on God.

I can relate to your feelings of inadequacy. Growing up, I struggled with feeling like a loser. I felt like “Sheryl the clumsy, worthless, outcast.” I kept thinking there was something wrong with me. I didn't know it at the time but Satan, the enemy, was putting thoughts into my tender child-mind.

Promise #1 - God's power is perfected in my weakness. Over the years, I listened to the lies the enemy told me. I repeated to myself things like “you'll never be good enough,” “no one likes you,” “you'll never fit in why should you even try?”When we see ourselves as damaged goods, it shows we don't know our identity in Christ. We are who God says we are as he tells us in his Word.

Ephesians 2:8,9 “By grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast.”

Promise #2 - God's provision comes from his abundance not my supply. 2 Corinthians 3:5 says “not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God.” Some of us have looked to our feelings to tell us how to act or respond. We might even say “I've always been this way” or “that's just who I am” or “I can’t help it,” if this is you Satan has stolen your identity.

Remember satan's plan for you? John 10:10 “the thief comes only to steal kill and destroy.”

God's provision comes from his abundance, not our capacity. Philippians 4:19 says “and God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.”

Promise #3 - I learned how to depend on God's sufficiency. Isaiah 40:29 “he gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.”

Psalm 73:26 “My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.”

Feelings aren’t facts. We can vercome feelings of worthlessness by standing on God's promises. Promise #1 God's power is perfected in my weakness. 2 Corinthians 12:9 says our weakness is where God's power shines brightest. Promise #2 God's provision comes from his abundance not my capacity. We must anchor our identity in God's word. Promise #3 God’s sufficiency is reliable. Whether through childhood wounds or cancer battles God meets us in our weakness and His mighty
