On many occasions I have tried and failed. I’m sure you have too. What is it that helps you get up and try again?
I believe the promises in the Bible are true. When I listen to the “voice of truth” I am encouraged to look up, get up, and move forward again, and again, and again! Mark Batterson in his book, The Circle Maker
Here’s an inspiring video from Casting Crowns album, Casting Crowns
I think we can all look back to events in our lives where we felt that we failed. It’s true for me a number of times in my life. I don’t remember where I heard this from, but it is some sound advice: “Have you failed? Try again. You say that you have tried again and failed again? Well, try again, and again, and again!”
Almost everyone knows Thomas Edison refused to quit. They say he tried about ten thousand items before he got the light bulb to work. I think we’re all glad he didn’t quit; you’re reading this article on your computer!
Some might say, “Oh, sure, Thomas Edison. You know, he was a brilliant inventor; it was easy for him not to quit.” Yes, it’s true he was a brilliant inventor, but he was still human like me and you. The fact remains he was not a quitter!
In life there will always be challenges. No one is exempt. There are times when we will face setbacks.
In this short podcast (8:58) I talk about how to deal with setbacks, recalling an incident years ago when I found myself stuck on the side of a mountain.
