Too often our failures shape how we view ourselves.
And this can ruin any day... as we wallow in shame over some thought, word or deed that missed the mark.
But God doesn't intend for you to live under a cloud.
In Christ you are forgiven, made righteous and able to move on...
All so you can fulfill His glorious design for your life.
And the psalmist reveals how impressive this is in writing...
What is man that You are mindful of him,
And the son of man that You visit him?
For You have made him a little lower than the angels,
And You have crowned him with glory and honor.
You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands;
You have put all things under his feet (Psalm 8:4-6).
So the next time you fall short, don't curl up and die.
Rise up and live in the position Jesus has restored to you.
