The lie - I have not been effective and successful in xxx what makes me think I can do well in xxx....
The truth - Failure doesn't define me, God does.
The reality - I'm still learning and exploring to discover what it is that God has called me to do... There is also a part of me that fears...
Due to my many failures, I sometimes doubt my capabilities and competence and struggle to find my strength!
Being involved in differen ministries /mission trips exposes me to different gifting I never knew I had... So far, I discovered I could do prophetic art and music... Now, I'm exploring children ministry, I've already been in childcare for 11 years, I'm just expanding my "experience" in the mission field to "test" my effectiveness... Too early to say anything yet, since I just started.
After all these years, I'm still trying to find my niche, what I enjoy doing and what I'm really good at. I roughly have an idea, but to be honest, I am just average, I'm not the best or the most sought after but I just want to be available... Possibly, a way for me to explore and discover what I'm truly called for in my calling in ministry... Different people have different opinions of me, ultimately it is God showing me and convincing me in the specific areas I should focus on...
Many failed attempts are also experiences, that I learn... Looking to see which area I've done well in and see how I can be better in it... This applies to my career too...
