10 Verses For When You Feel Like You are Not Good Enough

Do you sometimes feel like you are not good enough?

Do your insecurities weigh you down?

Sometimes we feel like we are not smart enough, skilled enough, rich enough, pretty enough, or spiritual enough to make a difference. Do you remember Moses when God called him to lead Israel, he said: “Lord, please send someone else to do it”. His excuse was that he was not eloquent enough.

Focus on the things God HAS given you – eyes to see, ears to hear, hands to serve, feet that walk, a heart that beats, lungs that hold air, a brain that can read and understand this, and a heart to feel God’s love – wow – you are amazing!

Here’s 10 Verses for When You Feel Like You are Not Good Enough–

1. God made you and he says you are wonderfully made. Trust him that he made you the way you are for his purpose.

Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you. ~1 Peter 5:6
