Tag: Failure is Not Final

  • Failure Is Not Really Failure

    Failures are only temporary tests to prepare us for more permanent triumphs. Failure cannot happen in your life without your permission. “Success” and “failure” are both impostors and should be treated alike. Winston Churchill said: Success is never final; failure is never fatal… it’s courage that counts. If you learn from a defeat, you haven’t really lost.

    My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my spirit and my portion forever (Psalm 73:26). Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail (Lamentations 3:22).

    Ancient Proverb: He who is born in the fire will not fade in the sun. If you are beginning to encounter some hard bumps, be glad for at least you are out of the pit. There is little you can learn from doing nothing. Take what you have and use it and your talent will increase.

    Do you have eyes that fail to see and ears that fail to hear? (Mark 8:18). [For we should say] far be it from me that I should sin against the Lord by failing to pray for you, and I will teach the way that is good and right (1 Samuel 12:23).

    Failures are not detrimental, for they make us see things differently.
