Weakness and failure
Low self-esteem
Seeing yourself as worthless, incapable, or unworthy of affection.
What the Bible can tell you
I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well.
Psalms 139:14
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.
Ephesians 2:10
because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
1 John 3:20
A human reading
Low self-esteem distorts how you see yourself. The text says you were made with care, and that is worth more than your own criticism. Speaking to yourself kindly, little by little, changes the way you look at yourself.
