Failing Our Way To OverComing
If you ask most Christians if they want to be an Overcomer, they will generally say yes. Then when adversity hits, they find their super Christian halo gets a little dented and tarnished. The more you try, the more you fail. That’s the lesson of Failure. Each time you fail, teaches you another way that doesn’t work. The question is, will you keep going until you find the solution to your problem? They say the difference between someone who succeeds and someone who fails is that the winner gets up one more time.
I have some good news for you. In your Christian walk you will never be good enough to become an Overcomer. You were never meant to. We all want to be like Jesus in this world and yet He said He only did what He saw the Father doing. Being an Overcomer means that you have raised the white flag of surrender. You realize that you will never be good enough, smart enough, lucky enough or talented enough to succeed in what God is calling you to do. You are going to have to submit and let Him do it through you. Don’t be afraid of the failures you have faced in life. Let them show you what you are not so that God can show you what He is in you.
