Have someone or people ever said those words for you?

Or maybe we put label on ourself that we are not talented, we are useless. What can we do? 

I myself just had experienced it. My confidence was torn when I heard my closest person told me that. I was trying not to think about it, but whenever I tried, the feeling had become stronger. Whatever I do, that sound echoed in my mind that I am useless and I am nothing. Then I prayed to God. I asked him to help me not to believe that lie. I said it was lie because now I knew that I was intimidated by the enemy.

I remember the bible told me that the enemy is the liar and he is the father of lies (John 8:44). He wants to fail the purpose of God in our life. He says everything, does everything so that God can not work through our life, one of them is to intimidate us, telling us that we are useless, we are sinners and whatever. God himself told us that we were fearfully and wonderfully made (psalm 139:14). We are no longer a sinner, for we are forgiven by the blood of the Christ (Rome 16:18). 

The truth is we are His son and daughter, and He is going to fullfil His purpose in our life. We may not know how and when, to whom and where. I remember the amazing story how Jesus did a miracle with five loaves and two fish. The miracle happened after Jesus prayed and gave thanks (Matthew 6:19). Whatever we have now, maybe we might consider it's a small talent, maybe too insignificant but God can do everything with what He has put in our life. Give thanks with our "five loaves and two fish", do our best with that, and He will make in to become a blessing to people and to become a praise to our Father in heaven.

My parent is not (yet) a believer.

I was 6 years old when my older sister took me and my little sister to sunday school in front of my house. It was the first time I knew Jesus. I started to attend the sunday school there. But not for a long time, I have to move to another city and l did not go to church anymore. Until I was in junior high, I got the Christian subject. I got a basic biblical lesson, where before it, I had no idea about Christianity before. At school, I did know how, all my best friend are Christian. Sometime they asked me to go to church with them. l went to church, but l went there without permission from my parent, especially my father. He does not like anything about God and religion. He scolded me, he disallow me to go to church. It continued until I was a high student. Sometimes I cried, beg him to allow me to go to church, sometimes I said that I want to meet my friend, but I did not mention that I meet a friend in a church. Many things I did so I could find a reason to go out so I could go to church. The only thing I could do is praying to God to open the way for me to worship Him freely, without guilt because of my reason I tried to make to my parent. One day, suddenly my father permitted me to go, he said that he just wanted me to make a relationship, having a friend there. WOW! Thanks God. As the time past by, my father gave me a freedom to choose what I believe, in one condition, for church only. He still does not permit me to involve in community cell, bible study or any church activity held besides on sunday. For him, go to church is once a week is enough. My mother is not so headstrong like my father, but she still does not believe in God, she believes as long as a mankind do not do harm to other people, they will have a peace and be saved.
