What do you see? It's surprisingly easy to look in the mirror and pick out all the things you think are wrong with yourself. It can be much more difficult to recognize, celebrate, and grow the special, inner and outer qualities that make up who you really are. God challenges you to push past what the world says about being beautiful and instead discover your true image, your true gifts, and your true strengths in God s eyes---things that go beyond outer beauty and explore who you really are inside. Based on the popular True Images Bible, the True Images Devotional features ninety, brand-new daily devotions on anxiety, bullying, body image, and more, as well as relevant Bible verses and prayers. Discover how God truly sees you and how the decisions and actions you make every day can help shape who you are, so you can become the person you were created to be."

Poverty reduction has become the central goal of development policies over the last decade but there is a growing realization that the poorest people rarely benefit from poverty reduction programmes. Microfinance programmes can help poor people improve their lives but generally such programmes do not reach the extremely poor and the chronic poor: casual labourers in remote rural areas, ethnic and indigenous minorities, older people, widows, migrants, bonded labourers and others.To counter this, governments, NGOs and donors have started to mount programmes explicitly targeting the poorest. This book is the first attempt to examine such initiatives and identify 'what works for the poorest'. It asks the questions: what are the characteristics of extreme poverty? how can we target the very poor? how can we ensure that women are not excluded? Through a set of carefully selected and well-integrated papers this book analyses innovative ultra-poor programmes from around the world and explores the lessons that emerge from this new and important body of knowledge.What Works for the Poorest? should be read by staff of donor agencies and NGOs, students of development studies and interested readers who are concerned about chronic poverty.
