Self Esteem.....
Do you feel unimportant? Do others seem to ignore you all the time as if you never existed?
Whether it is due to our upbringing, or present failures in life, low self-esteem is due to the deception of thinking we are not as good, or lucky, as others are.
Once this lie is framing our mindset, we are bound for failure in everything we endeavor, because our thought patterns are messed up.
And it is right there, at the root of the problem, that we have to confront this lie.
3 Major Mistakes People With Low Self-Esteem Make That Mess up Their Thought Life
1.- Making their self-worth depend on other people’s opinion. Your worthiness does not depend on what others think of you, it only depends on what God thinks of you. He created every human being for an awesome and fulfilled life, and He doesn’t make exceptions. He certainly doesn’t create failures.
2,- Looking for something acceptable within themselves. People who try to find worthiness in themselves are looking in the wrong place. There is nothing within you that is big enough to give you the high self-esteem you are yearning for.
3.- Self-exaltation. Trying to build your self-esteem by your own effort is a dangerous attempt of self-exaltation. Self-exaltation always leads to a fall, sooner or later. The only one who can exalt you in an enduring way is God.
And He desires to exalt you and to help you right now. But first you have to surrender to Him and learn to flow with His plan. You will come to the point of not desiring anything else, and that is when He can exalt you without the danger of you messing up big time.
