Ive had more than enough of being held in contempt, but when I know divine approval, I can rise again.  

It was like they were at the bottom of the pecking order and being held there.

People had contempt for them.

The word ‘contempt’ is one we don’t often use.

To be ‘held in contempt’, in a general sense, simply means that a person is despised or strongly disapproved of.

I was recently sent this image of what I believe is to be a young girl.

• What do you see in the image?
