Everyone reading this right now has had a time in your life where you questioned your own ability to do something?
"Do I have what it takes to be a good spouse?
"Do I have what it takes to do this job?"
"Do I have what it takes to follow Christ?"
The voices in the world tell us "no" as we are constantly bombarded by advertments telling us how empty we are...as well as constantly feeling like we fall short as we look at the "highlight reels" of our family and friends on social media. (Seriously - no one ever posts, "Just sitting here, wanting people to think I'm awesome!")
Philippians 4:13 says, "I can do all this through him who gives me strength."
In Christ you've got what it takes to be an incredible spouse, to be the best at a job, to follow Jesus in such a way it causes others to begin to ask you questions about your faith.
This Sunday at NewSpring we begin our brand new, "You've Got What It Takes" series - and if you have been lacking encouragement or feeling overwhelmed, then you've GOT to be here for it as I believe Jesus will use it to help all of us take our next step.
