By Talisha Brown // Self-esteem // EEW Magazine Online
As woman of God, you possess an inherent strength and grace that empowers you to navigate life's challenges with unwavering confidence. In your everyday life, you can further cultivate and amplify this confidence by embracing the truth that you are fearfully and wonderfully made by God.
If you are looking for ways to enhance your confidence, EEW Magazine is offering five tips with transformative power to shape the heart and mind of any woman seeking to improve their self-perception.
1. Strengthen Your Relationship with God.
A strong connection to God is a key component of confidence for a woman of faith. To strengthen your relationship with God, you must consistently communicate with Him through prayer and reading the Word. By doing so, you gain an understanding of who you are in Christ and acknowledge your true worth as a daughter of the King. This knowledge is incredibly empowering and instills confidence in your everyday life.
2. Surround Yourself with Positive, Encouraging Individuals.
For a woman to maintain her confidence in life, it is essential to surround herself with positive, encouraging individuals who support her growth. Being around people who believe in her abilities and provide inspiration enables her to cultivate a positive mindset. As Proverbs 27:17 says, "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." With an encouraging support system around you, you can walk confidently through life.
3. Embrace Personal Growth and Self-Development.
Confidence thrives when a woman takes the initiative to grow personally and spiritually. This can be achieved through attending Bible studies, participating in church activities, or reading self-development books rooted in biblical principles. A commitment to growth shows that you believe in your potential for improvement which translates into greater self-confidence.
4. Serve Others.
Service is an essential component of Christianity as Jesus Himself demonstrated through His ministry on earth. When a woman chooses to serve others discreetly or within her community, she builds confidence by putting her own abilities to use for the betterment of those around her. Doing so allows you to learn new skills while improving the lives of others which will ultimately bolster your own self-esteem.
5. Practice Gratitude.
A grateful heart has a profound impact on everyone's overall confidence levels. By counting blessings and thanking God for the good things in life—even small ones—a woman of faith begins to realize how blessed she is. This practice shifts her focus away from her insecurities and onto the abundance of things she has to be grateful for. Practicing gratitude can be as simple as starting a daily journal of thanksgiving or incorporating prayer into the morning routine.
A woman of God can increase her confidence by incorporating God-honoring activities into everyday life that will fill her heart with positive things.
Through putting spiritual practices to work, including building your relationship with God, surrounding yourself with positive influences, embracing personal growth, serving others, and practicing gratitude, you will be well on her way to a much healthier level of self-esteem!
