THE CHALLENGE OF FAILURE

In God's economy, nothing is wasted. Through failure, we learn a
lesson in humility which is probably needed, painful though it is.
AS BILL SEES IT, p. 31

How thankful I am today, to know that all my past failures were
necessary for me to be where I am now. Through much pain came
experience and, in suffering, I became obedient. When I sought God,
as I understand Him, He shared His treasured gifts. Through
experience and obedience, growth started, followed by gratitude. Yes, then
came peace of mind -- living in and sharing sobriety.

Great reading thanks for your service. I know a few old timers that used to say "no one ever died from a little pain." and pain is a great motivator, when the pain becomes to great you will either grow or go?

The one I liked the best was how some of us don't let go till there are claw marks in it then just maybe we might let go and let God?

These were just some thoughts that passed through my mind when I was reading this.

I guess the thing that amazes me most is how God can take those failures and not only teach us but turn failure into something good and purposeful to us! He can make a mess a blessing if we let him. Turn pain into joy!
