Self-esteem, a positive and lasting sense of one’s worth, is elusive among the human race. The very self that we wish to esteem is flawed. But when we have spiritual self-esteem, we can look into the mirror of the Word of God and see ourselves as we really are. We can understand and accept our own limitations, because our confidence is based not on personal achievements or merit but on who and what God is. Love for God becomes our highest motivating virtue. Self-delusion and insecurities lose their power, to be replaced by the wisdom of knowing His perfect character, judgment, and plan.

This special selection of lessons covers such topics as personality, finding your niche, solving problems with virtue love, and the characteristics of the believer who “loves his own soul” (Prov. 19:8).
