What Is Confidence?

I was relying on me and not God.
God knows me better than I know myself and I am grateful for this. God also knows you. We are all called to a purpose. We must accept that purpose or talent that God has asked us to use and grow in it using any resource God has given us. Including the people He has put in your life. Most of the time, they are the ones coming with God’s answers. Your confidence is drawn from how much you believe in what God’s word says. Trials and heart ache can really make you second guess what God says about you and your calling. It’s hard to keep walking in the valley alone, but we are not alone. Where you only see one set of footprints, God is carrying us through. You were called to be a leader, you were called to me a mother, you were called to be a Pastor. God’s word, which is truth, is your confidence. Step into your calling like a comfy pair of slippers and rest knowing that God has given you the ability and confidence to fulfill everything He has asked of us.

Growing In God

Growing In God (Poem)
I know we will all grow so much during this year
Growing with you all has been a blessing in my life
Pastor pours out the word that’s as sharp as a knife
Open your hearts and be ready to receive
All the goals you have set out to achieve
God has new things that are about to be conceived
All you have to do is have faith and believe
Don’t let the enemy make you naïve
He has so many tricks under his sleeve
Don’t let him fill your mind with overwhelming sin
Making you believe there is no way you can win
God has given us dominion over the devil
He wants to rise us up and take us to new levels
So don’t give up, don’t quit, this is only the start
God is going to do a transformation in each of our hearts
So let go, let God and leave it all on the field
And in the end Gods glory will be revealed.

Se que todos vamos a crecer tanto en este año
Creciendo con todos ustedes a sido de bendicion a mi vida
Pastor derrama esa palabra que es filosa como un cuchillo
Habran sus corazones y esten preparados para recibir
Todo los logros que te has puesto para cumplir
Dios tiene nuevas cosas que esta a punto de concebir
Lo unico que tienes que hacer es tener fe y creer
No permitas que el enemigo te convierta ingenuo
El tiene muchos trucos por arriba de sus mangas
No permitas que el llene tu mente de pecado sobre abrumante
Haciendote creer que no hay manera de superarte
Dios nos a dado dominio sobre el Diablo
El quiere elevarnos y llevarnos a niveles mas altos
Asi que no te rindas, no te des por vencido, que esto es solo el comienzo
Dios va hacer una transformacion en cada uno de nuestros corazones
Asi que sueltalo, deja que Dios tome control, y dejalo todo en el campo
Y al final, la gloria de Dios sera revelada
