Eight signs of attention-seeking and how to break free from it.
Let’s look at how we can calm our people-pleasing, quiet our people-focus, and silence our drive to rely on ourselves so we can find Jesus’ purpose for our lives.
Giving God the opportunity to show how much he cares
Vulnerability is key to building real and meaningful relationships
Learning to understand your fear and how to overcome it.
We all want to be cared for, known, understood, and loved for who we are. God is the starting place for this kind of intimacy.
Even when we make mistakes and hurt God, he still sticks with us because he loves us. Nothing we do can drive him away.
Being vulnerable with God means being comfortable with our weaknesses because we know God’s power is greater than any of our weaknesses or flaws and that all our strength and courage comes from God. There’s freedom knowing that God loves us no matter what and can make us strong despite our weaknesses or insecurities.
God doesn’t want us to feel like we have to conform in order to be accepted, and wants to help us become strong enough to stand for what we believe and who we are.
A conviction is a belief you hold onto firmly.
What motivates you? Are you more motivated to please people or to please God? Do you believe it’s possible to care more about pleasing God than pleasing people?
