I recently attended a Beth Moore seminar that was being viewed by nearly 300,000 women of all ages. The main point of her message was to identify what insecurities were, help us identify our insecurities, and lastly, identify a way to get rid of them!
Our 6 hour seminar, complete with worship, was broken up by a lunch break where we were asked to sit at round tables with ladies we most likely didn't know. Throughout our lunch break, we had questions to answer in response to the first session. One in particular that had my mind going was when we were asked, "When is the most recent time that you have felt insecure about something?" My immediate and simple answer was that morning. I mean, I'm only human...and female. I wake up with insecurities everyday about my looks, my life, my future, my family, and so on. It seems normal to have insecurities, hence the large amount and range of women that were in attendance. But one thing that stood out in the first session was the fact that our insecurities are a form of disbelief. Doubt. Questioning my Creator and who He's made me to be and where He's put me in life. I've never really thought of it that way before. Clearly, God knows what He's doing. He knew what I was going to look like, where I was going to be at in life, where I was headed, who was in my life-He knew these things long before I was even a spec in anybody's eyes. It's amazing to think that He has everything perfectly planned out. And it's insane that we would ever question the Living God. So as I left saying good-bye to my insecurities, I said hello to a new way of thinking.
I don't want to ever doubt or question my God. He's greater than any being I'll ever know and I'm so thankful for His blessings in my life.
