This seems to be a topic more as of late, and after reading Psalms 139 last night, this kinda came into mind.. What does it mean to be confident? What does it mean to know who you are under Jesus Christ? Psalms 139 talks about how God knows us before we are even in our mother's womb, and how we can never leave His spirit or presence. Psalms 139 says such knowledge of this is too great for us to understand. So, we know Jesus died for us on the Cross. And under Him, we are born again... So where does the confidence come to play? Is it worldly (having a job, car, own home, etc)? It seems like a lot know where it comes from, but not too many can explain what it means to get that confidence. So ladies (and men), what does it mean to be confident and know who you are under Jesus Christ?

This song says it better than I can, so I'll post it. Living Dangerously in the Hands of God.

"To live dangerously is not to live recklessly, but righteously."

I'll have to watch the video later. What does it mean to live dangerously righteous as a Christian? These are the types of questions nonbelievers ask, and if Christians can't understand or answer these, how are we to expect to minister to nonbelievers?

I confidently wake each morning knowing GOD will lead me on the path that is right for me and should I stray, I confidently know he will lead me back in his way. I will confidently speak the word of GOD and my love for him, if I should perish because of my beliefs I will confidently be in the presence of GOD. I will confidently pray and know he has an answer, whether it is the answer my human nature wants or not doesn't matter, as I confidently believe he will get me thorough. Confidence in Christ, is knowing CHRIST and accepting we are nothing without him in our life.

For me I think a lot of it is being confident that God is big enough that even if I majorly screw up he can salvage it. Yay for things going right with the universe not depending on me.
