But as a child of God I am confident that He will complete what He started in me.
For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. Phil 1;6 (BIBLE)
So I will look at ' Failure As The Back Door To Success"
The words of Peter Marshall are a good life motto.
"It is better to fail in a cause that will ultimately succeed than to succeed in a cause that will ultimately fail '.
Better to love God and die unknown than to love the world and be a hero; better to be content with poverty than to die a slave to wealth; better to have taken some risks and lost then to have done nothing and succeeded at it; better to have lost some battles than to have retreated from the war; better to have failed when serving God than to have succeeded when serving the devil. What a tragedy to climb the ladder of success only to discover that the ladder was leaning against the wrong wall !
God specialises in the impossible. When we positively accept his grace our failures can be turned into success.Only a big God can do such big miracles.
-Erwin W. Lutzer
(Failure The Back Door To Success)
8 Fertilize my soul:
Amen, sister Amrita.
The only thing worse than trying and failing is not trying at all.
Just remember how many times a baby has to fall before he learns the art of walking.
God knows, and he love to watch us try over and over again.
When the time is right we will be walking, even dancing from joy.
Dear Amrita ~ What positive, powerful words to remember and be inspired by.
Thank you.
Love and hugs to you ~ FlowerLady
I always try to remember that in Christ, there is no success and no failure...or should I say they are the same... experiences that turn us more and more to Christ and change us more and more into His likeness....
:)
Very inspirational words Amrita...your post always encourage me...thank you so much for sharing. Praying you are at peace and happy dear friend and sister in Christ...blessings
hi amrita. thank you for the love and prayer. (((hugs)))
Last time I thought about this same. Today people want even to work as chiefs, they study at university how to be director etc. But even in logical way - not everyone can be chief and hero, because everyone needs common, gray people. Even people who won the Nobel Prize were humble - it is worth to think about it.
Yes, you are right, Amrita, I think. I know you must be grieving every day but you still have a portion of your life to live and good you can do!
