Walking on Water: my confidence by Mercy Chinwo

A powerful weapon which reaches the heart in a way nothing else could is music. It pierces the heart in a way words fail to do. As mothers, we experience days where we are so strong and so confident, and there are also days where we feel lost, empty, and when exhaustion holds the will. During such moments, songs like "My Confidence" heals quickly.

"My Confidence", written by Mercy Chinwo, was a song that played with great assurance that confidence is not in deeds but in the knowledge that the source of your strength doesn't run dry. The song sends a message that tells whoever listens that trusting in God even when things are overwhelming is the best choice.

The beauty of motherhood comes with overwhelming demands, sleepless nights, and the quest to balance your life and that of the family in one scale ⚖️. Sometimes we are bothered with questions like "Are we going to sail through?" "Are we doing enough?" and feeling complete emptiness in those times.

That was exactly how I felt when this song found me and filled those emptiness. It reminded me that faith in God is all that we need. God is like the sun that plants need to survive, and we should always look unto him. The fact that we are seeing lines fall in places for us is the proof that there is still hope that God is by our side.

I am grateful to the producer of this song, Mercy Chinwo, for making this God-inspired song to encourage everyone, especially mothers, that our confidence is in God. I am grateful for music like this — music that uplifts, inspires, and strengthens the soul. “My Confidence” is more than just a song to me; it is a reminder that no matter the challenges I face as a mother, my trust in God gives me the confidence to keep going.
