Low Self
Image?
`You may regain
your self-respect. You may stand where you regard yourself, not as a
failure, but as a conqueror, in and through the uplifting influence of
the Spirit of God. Take hold of the hand of Jesus, and do not let it
go.' (MM43)
|
`One soul is of
such value that, in comparison with it, world's sink into
insignificance.'
(DA578) |
`You may believe
that Jesus is true to you, even though you feel yourself to be the
weakest and most unworthy of His children.' (TM517)
You see, `nothing
is apparently more helpless, yet really more invincible, than the soul
that feels its nothingness and relies wholly on Jesus. God would send
every angel in heaven to the aid of such a one, rather than allow him to
be overcome.' (7T17)
`He is watching
over you trembling child of God. Are you tempted? He will deliver. Are
you weak? He will strengthen. Are you ignorant? He will enlighten. Are
you wounded? He will heal. The weaker and more helpless you know
yourself to be, the stronger will you become in His strength.' (DA329)
`You need not cast
yourself away; for the Lord says, "His life need not be a failure. I
will make him Mine. I will show him that I prize his soul. I will strive
with him, and lift him up. He must not perish. I have a special work for
him to do. If he will unite with Me, believe in Me, and work for Me, his
weakest points of character, notwithstanding his past failures, will
become his strongest points." ' (MM41)
|
`Banish no longer your self-respect; for I have bought you with the price
of My own blood. You are Mine. Your weakened will I will strengthen.
Your remorse for sin I will remove.' (TM520) |
Jesus `has opened
the way so that the most sinful, the most needy, the most oppressed and
despised, may find access to the Father. All may have a home in the
mansions which Jesus has gone to prepare.' (DA113)
`By prayer, by the
study of His word, by faith in His abiding presence, the weakest of
human beings may live in contact with the living Jesus, and He will hold
them by a hand that will never let them go.' (MH182)
`He who is in
living connection with God may be in humble stations, yet his moral
worth is as precious as was that of Joseph and Daniel.' (1BC1097/8)
