Let Go of Doubt There are two things that cause self-doubt in your life -- Comparing your abilities to others - When you compare your abilities to others, you will begin to doubt my abilities. Instead of looking to God, you start looking at everybody else. You think these other people have more talent, more abilities, more education, or more experience. The moment you start comparing yourself to them, youre going to be filled with self-doubt. The Bible says, It is dumb stupid to compare yourself to other people. (2 Corinthians 10:12) God doesnt want you comparing yourself to anybody else. He created you to be unique. He wants you to be you. Remembering your past failures -- Remembering your past failures is like putting a movie in your mind of all your mistakes and playing it over and over. It tortures you to death and it causes you to doubt your abilities. God does not want you focusing on your past. If you stay focused on your past mistakes, you cant get on with your present. And God cant use you in the future. God says forget the past. Dont let your past doubts, dont let your past guilt, keep you from being used by God. God essentially says, I dont care what your past is. I want to use you! We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise. 2 Corinthians 10:12 NIV
