"For the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being caught." Proverbs 3:26

Our youth pastor shared this story from his childhood church camp days. He saw a squirrel running and jumping from tree to tree and he thought, "What makes the squirrel so confident? Does it know that God made it to jump? Is that why it's not afraid to do what it was made to do?" Then he thought, "Where do I get my confidence from? Why don't I live the life God created me to live with confidence?"

Does this story speak to you about self-confidence vs. God-confidence? How? Is there a time when you were nudged by God to step out in faith?
