So Long My Insecurity?


My church started the study, So Long Insecurity by Beth Moore about a month ago.  I love that all the women that come are so opened and honest.  It seems like everyone is truly interested in saying goodbye to their insecurities.  Some of the insecurities are so rooted in our lives. Affecting so much of what we do, what we say, and how we act. What if we made a decision to stop today allowing our insecurities to control everything?  Being hurt in a past relationship dictating how we treat our current one.  Or maybe, our distrust in friendship causes us to not believe in people at all anymore. 
God offers us promise after promise that He will take care of our needs. Restoration and healing comes from Him.  “Blessed are those who trust in the LORD and have made the LORD their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green and they never stop producing fruit.” Jeremiah 17:7-8. Let’s allow our roots to grow deep into God not down deep to insecurity. I can’t share from other ladies in the group but I would love to share my own journey out of insecurity along the way.

  1. "Whatever may have happened in your past is over and should be done with. It's history. You can pack your guilt and shame away in a box, use duct tape around all the edges to seal it tightly, and put it in the trash where it belongs. It doesn't need to haunt you any longer. Why? Because Jesus cares about what happened in your past. And he cares even more about what you're doing today to recover from it. He wants you to bring it to him, so he can fulfill his promise to you."
