The Psalmist wrote, “All of you are children of the most High.” (Psalm 82:6.) As children of our Heavenly Father, we are endowed with divine attributes and blessed with the opportunity to return to Him again despite the trials and temptations of our mortal existence. This is our “divine connection”-an unfailing link to Deity that can direct the course of our lives.
In The Divine Connection, noted speaker and writer Lloyd D. Newell explains that our inherent worth is the basis for all real self-improvement. He writes: “We cannot get more worth. A larger house, a better salary, and an impressive investment portfolio may give us more net worth, but our self-worth remains constant. While our self-esteem is affected by the ‘ups and downs’ of life, our self-worth never changes….The more we realize our intrinsic worth, the less our self-esteem fluctuates, and the more we are empowered to change our lives and build our self-esteem.”
Unlike other self-improvement books, The Divine Connection gives a spiritual dimension to popular self-help ideas and techniques.
By understanding our divine identity, we are better able to face the challenges of life and unlock our infinite potential to become all that we can be.
