Words to SPARK your Heart-Song – Episode #247

Quiet Confidence

Hi everyone. I’m Sherry Douglas with Heart-Song. Do you believe in yourself? I don’t
mean in an arrogant way, but with a quiet confidence? I’ve met with many people as
they create Life Compass Statements, receive Enneagram coaching or training, and to
brainstorm their ideas. A big factor in whether they move forward is if they believe in
themselves. It seems that belief in yourself is key to making the changes in your life that
you deem are meaningful. Close your eyes for a moment and take in these truths: You
deserve to be seen and heard. Your ideas are important. Your gifts and talents are
needed in this world. You matter!
Having this quiet confidence doesn’t mean you never struggle or experience fear. It
means you keep taking next steps despite the struggles or fears. It means you grant
yourself permission to become who you were created to be. It also means you give
yourself grace for setbacks. For people of faith, this quiet confidence is fueled by our
belief in God. Philippians 4:13 says, “I can do all things through him who strengthens
me.” It’s not in our strength or in our confidence we’re able to move forward, but in the
Lord’s.
Live the way you want to be remembered.
