You are not a failure when you do not succed with your plans. It is God telling you “Not yet, you are still learning what I have planned for you.”
If you have ever been judged because of a risk that you have took that did not work out, say this prayer and listen.
Lord, are you trying to tell me something?
For…
Failure does not mean I’m a failure; It does mean I have not yet succeeded.
Failure does not mean I have accomplished nothing; it does mean I have learned something.
Failure does not mean I have been a fool; it does mean I had enough faith to experiment.
Failure does not mean I’ve been disgraced; it does mean I dared to try,
Failure does not mean I don’t have it; it does mean I have to do something in a different way.
Failure does not mean I am inferior; it does mean I am not perfect.
Failure does not mean I’ve wasted my life; it does mean I have an excuse to start over again.
Failure does not mean I should give up; it does mean I must try harder.
Failure does not mean I’ll never make it; it does mean I need more patience.
Failure does not mean you have abandoned me; it does mean you must have a better idea.
Amen
