My
self-image is lower than the lowest.
I can't even love myself,
let alone love God and my fellow men. If I can't even love
myself, how can I possibly entertain the thought that God can
love me?
`Nothing
is apparently more helpless, yet really more invincible,
than the soul that feels its nothingness and relies wholly on
the merits of the Saviour. God would send every angel in
heaven to the aid of such a one, rather than allow him to be
overcome.' (7T17)
`One
soul is of such value that, in comparison with it, world's
sink into insignificance.' (DA578)
`Our
Redeemer 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)
`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)
`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)
`You
may recover yourself from the snare of the enemy. 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 Christ, and do not let it go.' (MM43)
