Stand Up When You Fall

'For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief' (Proverb 24:16).

The fact that you failed is proof that you're not finished. Failure and mistakes can be a bridge, not a barricade to success. The psalmist writes, 'The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord and him delighteth in his way. Though he may fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him in his hand. (Psalm 37:23-24) Successful people believe that mistakes are just feedback. If you have tried to do something and failed, you are vastly better off than if you had tried to do nothing. Theodore Roosevelt said, 'Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to rank with that poor spirit who neither enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the great twilight that knows not victory or defeat.

The death of your dream will not happen because of a failure; its death will come from indifference and apathy. 'You don't drown by falling in the water, you drown by staying there' (Ed Cole). When you make a mistake, learn your lesson and forget about the details. 'A man who refuses to admit his mistake can never be successful. But if he confesses forsakes them, he gets another chance.' (Proverb 28:13).

PRAYER: Father, I thank you for the Word you sent my way today. I thank you for not letting off your helping hands even when I didn't ask for it. Thank you, Lord, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

VALUE FOR TIME

To everything, there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven (Ecclesiastes 3:1) Our entire life is measured by time. Your success and achievement are directly proportional to the time invested therein. To the one that is a medical doctor, for instance, it means that he has invested 5 or 6 years of his time in learning and acquiring knowledge to practice as a medical doctor. It, therefore, means that he traded time for the skill. We have a period here on earth to fulfill our purpose. It would be suicidal to attempt to waste it for we have but one life.  Helpful Topic: Motivational Quotes For Women.

Move On

" ...: _but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward calling of God in Christ Jesus_ ". Philippians 3:13-14 The past is always going to be the way it was, so stop trying to change it. Your future contains more happiness than any past you remember. Believe strongly that the best is yet to come. Today we remember Paul more as an Apostle of Christ than a persecutor of Christians. He never had the opportunity to be with Jesus physically but he had more revelation of Him than the other Apostle that was with Jesus. He was never ashamed and went about preaching the Gospel of Christ. Each time he remembers his past, he will try to forget and move on. "... this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind..." (Philippians 3:13-14). God through Apostle Paul performs great miracles. God is very good at changing ugly situations to pleasant situations if you believe He can do
