How can we deal with failure? Many people condemn themselves with self-remorse, which can grow into self-hatred. “Why did I do that!” “How could I have ever said that!” However, our failures are only a prelude to deeper realization of Christ’s love and enabling power. Forgiveness and a new chance are but a prayer away for any of us. Christ is listening right now. What do you need to tell Him? Failure can bring us to either self-condemnation or repentance. Life in Christ is a succession of new beginnings. Which one will determine our character? Why not start anew today. — Mark 14:72
