Not as pep talk, but to remind you were real strength comes from. God asks you to be confident in Him. Let these prayers help remember who you are in Christ when you are doubting your own self.

I used to think confidence meant being loud. Taking up space. Always knowing what to say. But the more I’ve grown, the more I’ve realized real confidence is quieter, it’s rooted in knowing who you are and whose you are. I’ve struggled with doubt. I’ve held back out of fear. Writing these prayers reminded me that confidence isn’t something you fake; it’s something God builds in you over time. If you’re in that process too, I hope this page gives you language for the moments when boldness feels just out of reach.

But God loves to meet us in our weakness with His strength. Let your confidence rest in something unshakeable: God’s love for us along with His plans and presence.
