First thoughts

Welcome to my journey of faith!

Confidence in God's Sovereignty
We need not fear.  We don't depend on our own strength, but on God's.  He empowers us to do his good purpose.  We need only be confident in his ability.
Jeremiah 1:6&9 "'Ah, Sovereign Lord,' I said, 'I do not know how to speak....' But the Lord said to me...Now, I have put my words in your mouth.'"
In the case of Moses, the issue wasn't what the burning bush was like; the issue was that God was in the bush. 
"Confidence" comes from two words, "with faith".

Faith
It is by faith in Christ's finished work on the cross that we find salvation.  It is by faith that we please God.  It is by faith that we walk the Christian life.  It is through faith that God empowers his children.
Hebrews 11:1&6 "Now faith isbeing sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."  Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him."
