• “We say, then, to anyone who is under trial, give Him time to steep the soul in His eternal truth. Go into the open air, look up into the depths of the sky, or out upon the wideness of the sea, or on the strength of the hills that is His also; or, if bound in the body, go forth in the spirit; spirit is not bound. Give Him time and, as surely as dawn follows night, there will break upon the heart a sense of certainty that cannot be shaken.” – Amy Carmichael

A Masterpiece by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 11/23/11

“I don’t know why, but when I was six someone said I shouldn’t have been born.”

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: A lot of women fall for the lie that says, “You’re not worth anything.” A lot of times that deception is fueled by the uncaring words of others.

“For a long time I thought of myself as just worthless.”

Nancy: Someone may have made an off-hand remark to you that made you feel worthless. When that happened, it was like a foolish person throwing away a beautiful painting because she didn’t recognize its value.

But imagine an art collector who comes along, finds the unwanted painting, and cherishes it as a masterpiece. That’s what God’s done for you.

Ephesians 1 says, “For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.” When He sent His Son to die for your sin, He gave you your value. You are precious to Him.

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss.

  • “A Christian woman’s true freedom lies on the other side of a very small gate—humble obedience—but that gate leads out into a largeness of life undreamed of by the liberators of the world, to a place where the God-given differentiation between the sexes is not obfuscated but celebrated, where our inequalities are seen as essential to the image of God, for it is in male and female, in male as male and female as female, not as two identical and interchangeable halves, that the image is manifested.” – Elisabeth Elliot
