"You cannot believe in God until you believe in yourself"
Simplified meaning
Believing in yourself means having confidence and trust in your abilities and judgment. If you don't have this self-belief, it's hard to truly have faith in something bigger than yourself, like God. Think of it like this: if you don't believe you can learn to ride a bike, it’s difficult to trust a coach who says you can do it. The coach's encouragement won’t mean much if you don’t first think, "Yes, I can try this." Similarly, having a strong belief in God often starts with recognizing your own worth and potential. By trusting in your own abilities, you open up to trusting in a higher power. For anyone, building self-confidence can help them grow spiritually because they feel more connected and open to faith.
