Starting Over After Failure

Submitted by joakley on Mon, February 22, 2010 - 5:16pm

In the eyes of God, failure is never final! The book of Proverbs tells us that a righteous man may fall seven times, but he gets back up!

In his great book, Failing Forward, leadership expert John Maxwell says that failure can actually propel us forward in life if we do three things:

1- Be big enough to admit our failures

2- Be smart enough to learn from our failures, and

3- Be strong enough to put failure behind us.

I want to encourage you with this fact, no matter how big you have failed or how many times you have failed, with God's help, you can get back up and start over!

Dare to believe it!
