Garth Brooks sings a song that includes the line, "Failure isn't failure, if a lesson from it's learned." In our lives, we all make mistakes. We may stumble in many ways. We are not perfect because we cannot keep our entire bodies in line, but our inability to keep from stumbling or falling does not need to keep us from eternal glory!
We can learn from our stumbles or failures. There may be many different lessons that we learn when we stumble, but one enduring lesson we can learn is that God is always ready to help us get back up. We will make mistakes. We will fall short of God's glory, but God has a plan for our lives and for our redemption. God sent His Son to help us get back up. We can accept the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and the cleansing of our sin that His sacrifice provides. When we turn to God and Jesus, we can get back up whenever we stumble or fall!
When you fail, learn to trust in God and allow Him to get back up and to learn!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the sacrifice of Your Son, Jesus Christ. Please forgive my sins and to get back up and learn from my failures. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
