Get Up

Posted on August 5, 2014 by Wes in An Inspirational Thought for Today

The godly may trip seven times, but they will get up again.  Proverbs 24:16

Do you ever think you are not good enough? Have you bought into the lie that if you make a mistake you will never recover? I have.

I have also found that some of my greatest growth was developed as a result of difficult times and even mistakes. It’s been said, there are no bad experiences and no good experiences, only learning experiences. 

Once we fall, we need to regain perspective and get back up. The hurts of our past sometimes leave marks.  We have the choice to live with those marks as open wounds or make them the defining moments that bring about change.

Don’t let despair, doubt, and fear overcome you and keep you from what God created you to be. Persist until you succeed. Try, try, and try again.

The righteous person may have many troubles, but the LORD delivers him from them all.  Psalm 34:19

Every journey starts with a single step.  What first step will you take today?  Ask God for help and start a new journey.

Blessings,
