Sometimes we take ourselves for granted. We lose confidence because of unavoidable circumstances like not achieving what we want or failing to succeed in something we have worked hard for.

While there may be times when you are defeated, this shouldn’t stop you from reaching your dreams and achieving your highest potential. It shouldn’t cause you to question your self-worth.
In this post, we’d like to help you improve the way you view yourself. We have collected 27 Bible verses that can aid you in valuing yourself a little more.
