Failure shouldn’t define you but refine you.
Tim Botto

Failure is an inevitable fact of life. You can let it define you and confine you, or you can choose to allow it to refine you and then move on and leave it behind you. I’m learning that if my life is free of failure, then I’m not taking enough risks. We should not judge those who try and fail, only those who fail to try. Winston Churchill instructs us, “Success is stumbling from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.” Be encouraged that success is not forever and failure is not fatal.

My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. (Psalm 73:26)
