A Daily Devotional About making many attempts and never giving up: Matthew 25:21 "His master replied, `Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!' (NIV) Failure is a human blight. We all fail. When we know we have failed, we can choose to make more attempts and keep going or we can choose to give up. Utter failure comes when we give up. Utter failure comes when we let failure stop us. God gives us innumerable opportunities to do His will. Sometimes we make mistakes in trying to do God's will. To stop trying to do His will is to fail Him. We are all tempted and sometimes we fall down. Sometimes we cave in to temptation. When we fail at being His child, what do we do? We are wrong when we stop trying. When we fail in a moral sense we are to confess our failures, confess our sins, and keep on keeping on. God loves those who struggle to do His will in life. As God sees it, the person who fights through great adversity to serve Him is a person of high honor and high merit. The will of Christ is to say to you, as you enter heaven, "Well done, good and faithful servant." If you quit, if you stop trying, even in the face of failure, there is no way you will have accomplished His will for you. |
