Being and Doing – 27 December – High Failure
Aye, better to climb and fall,
Or sow though the yield be small;
Than to throw away day after day,
And never strive at all.
Aye, better to climb and fall,
Or sow though the yield be small;
Than to throw away day after day,
And never strive at all.
The Past cannot be changed. The Future is yet in our power.
Describing the gift of Christ at Christmas cannot be done by th use of one name alone.
We find in the manger a gift so large that it does indeed ‘hold the whole world in it’s hands’
I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future. The spirits of all three shall strive within me.
IT IS a mistake to suppose that men succeed through success; they much oftener succeed through failure.
Nor deem the irrevocable Past
As wholly wasted, wholly vain,
If, rising on its wrecks, at last
To something nobler we attain.
FAILURE after long perseverance is much grander than never to have a striving good enough to be called a failure.
Every temptation that we meet in the path of duty is another chance of filling our souls with the power of heaven.
you must let God teach you, that the only way to get rid of your past is to get a future out of it.
He Fails never.
If He cannot work by us
He will work over us.
