FAILURE

Do you ever check out
one thought at a time
While you try to hold on
hoping all will be fine

Does your heart ever crack
with the weight of it all
You can't find your grip
you are sure you will fall

Your mind can't think
of even one thing
except what you know
will only bring pain

You've tried it before
it just causes a spin
Of all that is good
you know you can't win

Why won't it stay gone
it's some sort of test
To see what you learned
You are not at your best

Afraid of the failure
of the sadness it brings
It's clear too you now
no hope can you sing

It was conquered before
life was so good
Can you turn it around
or will you fail for good

Indeed, we will fail at times; but God is mnerciful, and will not hold our past against us if we confess our sins to Him.

Here's a promise from the Bible that I find to be very encouraging, especially when I think about failure:

"And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28

Blessings to you...
