You Have What It Takes

John 16:33 NIV | “I have told you these things, so that in me (Jesus) you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

You were created with the innate ability to conquer, overcome, and thrive. The choice to believe in and give power to your ability is completely in your hands. How about reframing the idea that challenges and afflictions are happening to you - instead they are happening purely for your evolution and purposeful sharpening of your character/calling. In the bible verse, we are assured that we will endure our fair share of troubles, yet we can take heart in the knowing that we can have peace in the midst of it all. Here is my endorsement to compel you to celebrate your perseverance for each of the seemingly insurmountable obstacles you have conquered and overcame thus far. Your track record of surviving and transcending the valley seasons is proof enough that you have what it takes.

You have what it takes to traverse growing pains. You have what it takes to steward well what is in your hand and to multiply it. You have what it takes to endure the grieving process. You have what it takes to face rejection and reframe it as the belief that what is for you will not miss you. You have what it takes to release what is no longer bearing good fruit and stand in patience to reach the new beginning without settling for temporary void fillers. You have what it takes to work on improving your self-concept and increasing your self-confidence. You have what it takes to overcome strongholds and live freely. You have what it takes to make hard decisions and to keep moving forward. You have what it takes to fulfill your destiny. You are encouraged to make decisions that affirm the belief that you are already the courageous and empowered you. May you feel recharged in the knowing that you always have what it takes.
