It can be a good thing to have confidence in ourselves. Having self-confidence can allow us to approach challenges and figure things out. However, we may find that we need to balance our confidence with our abilities. If we over-estimate either our abilities or our weaknesses, we can trap ourselves and limit our accomplishments.
We don't want to think too highly of ourselves. We shouldn't have too much self-confidence. We need to be grounded or humble. To keep ourselves grounded, we should be rooted in God's Word and in our relationships with Him. Through our faith, we can talk to God. We can recognize the talents and blessings He has given us and we can credit Him as the source of these things. We can then work for His Kingdom, not for ourselves. By serving God through service to others, we can stay humble and reap the joy of spreading God's love!
Don't allow yourself to get too high on your own abilities, but follow God through faith and praise Him and use the talents and blessings He provides!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the talents and blessings in my life. Help me to use them to serve You by serving others. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
