Can you imagine how absurd it would be to see a young man walking around the house with his thumb in his mouth muttering, "Dad, have mercy on me. I need money for lunch. Please, Dad, have mercy on me."
Yet this is the attitude some of us have toward God. Instead of resting in the confidence that He longs to give us His best, nagging doubts might disturb your sleep. Your attitude becomes one of begging and pleading with Him. This lack of confidence could be rooted in a deep sense of insecurity. Subconsciously we may be uncertain about God and His love for us. No matter what it stems from, insecurity should not be a part of our new nature – it's a tool Satan uses to keep us in bondage to the old nature. I remember during the time that my life was in chaos, I always begging somebody to help me for a while to stand on my own feet but it never happens. It only make me more insecure, loss my self esteem and self confidence. Thanks to all my sisters and brothers in christ who always reminded me that I had to trust God. That God has plan for me and Jesus will never forsake me. God is starting to bring back my life, my self confidence and my self esteem. I was no longer hindered by my insecurity. Remember God wants to anoint us with a new confidence in Him. He wants us to say without a doubt: "Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need". Lay our insecurities at the cross, and sleep peacefully, knowing we are one of God's chosen, with all the boldness and confidence we need to approach Him as our loving Father, and to appropriate His riches from the throne of grace. God's Blessing to ALL..

God Bless You Mr. Rupert....
I didn't sneeze.
What you need to realise is that the behaviors you demonstrate are exactly the same as those of drug addicts who have just had their 'fix'.
There is no god. Faith is based on faith alone. Proof never has and nver will exist.
You live a life of delsuion and self-denial. What is it that you can't face?
Rupert!,
GET REAL!!!
Repent and be Baptized!
Remember me on the day when you expect to revert into nothingness, but instead are interogated by King Jesus, Lord of the Universe.
The gift of God is the breath of life, the freedom to do as you will, and His Holy Word.
Do GOOD! True inteligence will lead you to the ultimate reality.
Battle the evil one who is your true enemy, and quit harrassing poor defenseless women.
Rev. LB
