Failure is not an option


One of my deepest fears is the fear of failure.  It has controlled much of my life, driven my strongest reactions and influenced most of my decisions.  At times I am convince that I have no value, that I will never succeed and that I am incapable of being who God asks me to be.  Slowly, over time, I am learning that this is a lie from the enemy.  I am not saying that there are not time that I fail - they have been many and some have been spectacular.  This does not define who I am nor is it the pattern for my life.

Being a Christian is about being forgiven.  God's grace and mercy are what defines us and gives us the chance for a new pattern.

blessings on your day
