March Boldly!




Soldiers march in formation -


Have you ever looked at your calendar, for the week, and thought how am I going to get everything done?  

Or how about, you are starting a new job or responsibility and you think, "I hope I can do and be what everyone thinks I can be."    

Maybe you are giving a presentation and you are not comfortable speaking in front of a group.

What if you know you have to speak to someone with some unpleasant news and confrontation is not your thing. 

There are so many things we women need to do that we don't always feel equipped to handle. We do not always have a good opinion about ourselves. The world can beat all of us down. It can get us to thinking that we aren't worth anything and that we sure can't lead the world, or anyone, in this march of life.

I love the picture that I found for this blog. We can't see who these marchers are but you look at the picture and can really feel their confidence and their strength. You don't get the feeling that they are scared or unsure of themselves at all.

Satan loves for us to doubt ourselves. He loves it when we just can't seem to get it all together. If we forget that we as Christians can do anything with God's help, he gets such a kick out of that. He knows that we have lost our focus on the one who gave us life and who will do anything for us.

If we forget to to lean on God we are giving Satan way too much power over us. Then the doubts get worse and the fears set in and we slump through the world, hoping to get by.

Again the Scriptures have something to tell us...................




2 Chronicles 20:17


Just stand firm, Judah and Jerusalem, and watch God’s saving work for you take shape. Don’t be afraid, don’t waver. March out boldly tomorrow—God is with you.”


God wants us to stand firm on what we know to be true. He wants us to drop our fears and doubts. He wants us to hold our heads high and remember that everything will be OK. We can face tomorrow and know that what ever it brings we are ready and we are not alone.

So let's stand up straight, get into formation and start marching!

Blessings!!!
