10 Biblical Affirmations For Self-Esteem When You Don’t Know Your Worth

Why would someone need to know any biblical affirmations for self-esteem?

Sometimes as Christian women, it can be easy to believe that we have less worth to God in his kingdom and it can really take a toll on our self-esteem!

At least that is how I have felt in the past (and secretly sometimes still do). 

Especially when you read the Bible and learn that the roles that God defined for us don’t always line up with the roles the world has defined for us.

I know I have felt less than in Christian spaces because it does sometimes seem like women are not as important to God as men are.

But don’t worry…women really do have worth in God’s eyes. Just look around you; God has done and is still doing great and mighty things through women in various fields of life.

Not only that but if you read the New Testament, you will see just how valuable women were to our Savior, Jesus.

Today, I’ll share some bible verses that can help you get your confidence back. These biblical affirmations for self-esteem will remind you that God loves you no matter how you’ve felt in the past.

Giving It To God: How To Give Up Control And Trust God More Even When You Don’t Want To!

Giving It To God: How To Give Up Control And Trust God

I won’t even lie to you. Giving “it” to God is one of the scariest aspects of being a Christian for me.

I hate being vulnerable, giving up control, surrendering…whatever you want to call it. It’s not my thing. I’d much prefer just being anxious all the time and trying to figure it all out myself. And I seriously wish I was joking, but I’m not.

I’m just keeping it real with you. And it’s highly possible that you feel the same way if you’re reading this!.

I want you to know that you’re not alone…not in the least bit. However, I have learned after many sleepless nights, many spiritual battles, and “wars” with God (“war” is in quotes because really…what kind of war would I really have with God?”) that surrendering to God is really the best option even if I go kicking and screaming as I do it.

Again, I wish I were more compliant, but it goes against my nature.

I’m so grateful, though, that I serve a God that is abundantly patient and kind with me and loves and blesses me despite how difficult I can be to deal with.

I hope that the tips I’m going to share with you today will help you learn to give it to God even if it terrifies you because, at the end of the day, it is the best thing that you can do!Continue reading

How To Memorize Psalms (& Why You Should)!

Being able to recite Bible verses from memory is beneficial for a number of reasons. Besides bringing you closer to God, having his word written on your heart will help not only you but those around you.

Having specific verses to share with others in their time of need may be the healing that a friend or stranger needs in that moment.

Do you like the thought of being able to memorize scripture so that you can share its healing message with others but feel intimidated by the thought of this daunting task?

Don’t worry. Memorizing scripture may not be as hard as you think.

Writing God‘s word on our hearts is very important as you know. But how do we do it? My suggestion is to start by memorizing psalms.

And I’ll be sure to share with you why I recommend that, how to do it, and where to get a free Bible journal (printable and digital) to help make memorizing scripture that much easier.

Let’s get right to it!

40+ Comforting Bible Verses For The Hopeless Girl With A Broken Heart!

40+ Bible verses for hopeless women

[Sometimes I feel like as Christians we aren’t supposed to have feelings of hopelessness or despair.

As if we are less His children if we struggle with depression or other mental illness. But God is a God of great mercy and He knows that we struggle just like anyone else.

However, we don’t stay in a pit of despair because we have a hope from God that pulls us out of that pit.

And in today’s post, written by Karen Ellis of the Warrior Women blog she is going to share some powerful bible verses with us that we can turn to in times of hopelessness.

So if you have a broken heart or feel a complete loss of hope, pull up a chair, get comfortable and let the word of God fill you with the hope that only He can provide.]

 

Guest post by Karen Ellis of the Warrior Woman Blog

God is so good. He loves you more than you can comprehend and only wants what is best for you. But sometimes, this is hard to believe.

When we are going through what seems like one trial after another, we just barely weather one stressful storm when another one hits. It can cause us to feel helpless and hopeless.

Where do you turn for help when you are feeling helpless or hopeless? The Bible has a lot to say about this subject and even gives us several examples of people who felt hopeless, just like we do at times.

For help and hope in the moments when you feel hopeless, let these Bible verses bring you peace and comfort.Continue reading

Can Christian Women Practice Witchcraft & Still Please God?

I am the queen of going down rabbit holes.

Have you ever started typing a phrase into Google or Pinterest and had a phrase pop up and you just had to know what that phrase was about?

That’s what happened to me on Pinterest.

I was trying to type in Christian women into Pinterest. As I was typing, one of the suggested terms that popped up was Christian witch.

I thought “Wait, what? That’s not a thing. Surely, no Christians practice witchcraft.”

Turns out I was wrong.

Christian witchcraft is a thing.

Except it’s not really a thing and yet some people sincerely believe that it is.

I truly wanted to cry while I was writing this post.

I had no idea that Christian witches existed although I should have known because the devil never rests and is always looking to deceive as many people as possible.

I’m so heartbroken that women are falling into this trap thinking that they are walking with God when they are not. Maybe I should word this post in a nicer way but I can’t sugarcoat this.

As I strive to become more like a Proverbs 31 woman, it’s imperative to “speak with wisdom and faithful instruction”.

I will not mince words.Continue reading

9 Powerful Bible Verses To Overcome Anxiety & How To Use Them In Your Bible Journal!

white desk white pen white journal teal overlay bible verses for anxiety

Powerful Bible Verses To Overcome Anxiety As Christians 

If there was ever a time when we need Bible verses to overcome anxiety, it is now!

Why? Because an estimated 40 million Americans are suffering from anxiety.

And while there should be no Christian women counted in that number I know for sure that there are (I am one of them).

Why shouldn’t any of us struggle with anxiety?

Because Jesus told us about a million different times not to be anxious ( give or take a few times).

Yet so often we still can’t overcome the constant worry and doubt that plagues so many of us.

So I thought it would be good to have a devotional and remind ourselves of 9 major things the Bible says about overcoming anxiety.

Let’s Define Some Words First…
