The doubts and questions are there. We wonder if we should venture out in faith or listen to the nagging narrative: "You are not good enough. You don't have what it takes."
And so, in the end, we choose to silence the voices in our head, and we collapse back into our comfortable lives.
Can you relate to this sentiment at all?
Have you ever felt prompted or called to do something for the Lord, but you have given into the negative emotions that force us back into our shell?
If YES, then know that you are in very good company. Almost all of the heroes of our faith came to a point of self-doubt, fear and paralysis. However, in the end, they took a bold step forward and trust God at his word.
Are we willing to do the same? We will stay close to God, trusting in his provision and guidance at the moments we need it most?
“Now go; I
will help you to speak and will teach you what to say.” – Exodus 4:12
