There is no need to fear failure. It will
only prevent achieving. Sometimes you
just have to hang in there and not be so
quick to give up! The basketball player
LeBron James said, “You have to accept
failure to get better.”
These examples definitely show us
that a failure or a mistake does not make
one stupid or a loser. So, be careful of
labels. Failure or a mistake is an action,
not an identity. If you slip up, it means you
are human. You can always recover. And
you can start over anytime.
I often wondered why I liked rubber,
bouncing balls enough to collect them.
Their many colors shine through their
home in my large glass fishbowl. In time,
the Lord answered my question. My ball
collection was to be a reminder to me: A
rubber ball will always bounce back – and
I could too.
Believe that good things are on the
way. The very best is before you. Doors
