We all have days when we feel less than what God has created us to be. Here are some practical ways to cope, when you feel like a loser in life:
1 You Are Not Alone.
Relax, you're human. Feeling like you haven't accomplished enough, you're not pretty enough, you're... not... enough... is common, especially living in this self-centered world. We all have something we feel insecure about. How can we not, when we are bombarded with images that tell us we're..not...enough?
2. Help Someone
When we open ourselves up to volunteering or ministering to others, it can reveal strengths we take for granted. Even just helping an elderly person with their groceries, can show us that we have
3. Talk to Someone
When we feel lost in life, we can become embarrassed to talk to someone about our feelings. We think no one will understand. But talking to someone we trust is a good way to receive the encouragement we need. A friend, church leader, or counselor can help us figure out ways to stop feeling so low.
4. Remember the Truth
Remember that feelings change. We have to remind ourselves that our feelings are not the same as truth. God determines what is true. God says we all have purpose and potential, when we depend on Him. NO, we won't always be happy. NO, we won't always FEEL useful. But feelings come and go, God's truth is eternal.
5. Talk to GOD
Talking to others in tough times can be a blessing, but there is no replacement for talking to God or reading the Bible. When you're feeling like you are lost or have no direction in life, try reading: these Bible passages.
Be Well+
