As I’ve shown before, I struggle with fear, there are many circumstances where I’m afraid, most involve meeting new people. In starting a new job I’ve encountered numerous (okay, not numerous, probably five or six) new people. This is scary, I could definitely use more confidence, which is why I’ve been listening to Unstoppable by Red from Gone (2017).

VERSE TWO
I break down, only alone I’ll cry out loud,
You’ll never see what’s hiding out,
Hiding out deep down, yeah,
I know I’ve heard that to let your feelings show,
Is the only way to make friendships grow,
But I’m too afraid now…

I’ll put my armour on,
Show you how strong I am,
I’ll put my armour on,
I’ll show you that I am…

I’m unstoppable, I’m running with no brakes,
I’m invincible, I win every single game,
I’m so powerful, don’t need batteries to play,
I’m so confident, I’m unstoppable today!

It’s not mentioned here, but I think it’s alluded to. Strength, power and confidence come from God. I need to look to Him for the confidence I need. I need to put on the armour of God (found in Ephesians 6) and rest in His ultimate power.

A few years ago I had a thought, I can’t die unless God allows it. At the time I was young and naive, but I think my past self is exactly right. And I need that sort of confidence again.
