Confidence
In my observation of people, I have found that some live with a confidence that enables them to have what seems like a better go at life, than do others.
Confidence begins with a postive sense of identity. Who are you? Are you who you were meant to be? The fact is, we were made for Christ, according to John 1:3. This being true, nothing short of a life in correct relationship with Him will ever bring the desired results.
Confidence requires a sense of security. A child may be very afraid when alone in his room on a dark night, but when a parent enters the room, all his fears are replaced with great confidence that everything is alright. We, who are Christians, live in the presence of God. We realize that presence most vividly, when we have repented of all known sin in our life and have surrendered ourselves to His will.
