Walking away from 2016 |
I feel that anyone alive; breathing and doing needs a little inspiration; a few uplifting words. Heaven knows with all this doing and living there are times we fail – if you are human. And then, it is all in the handling of the failure. The thing is – to fail does not mean to quite, but to pick yourself up and start a new. Try a new way to get to the final goal. Whatever that goal may be.
Thomas Alva Edison Story
Edison had a very specific attitude towards failure.
It took him 10,000 attempts to refine the
light bulb.
He had many successful patients,
but there were many failures. He continued
to try and try again.
Edison said, “I can never find the things that work best until I know the
things that don’t work.”
Keep trying, trying, trying and persevere. That dream – that may not have surfaced yet could be right around the bend.

Catching the Dream |
I have a copy of a devotional that I keep with me and read to give me a lift; a little push; that encouragement to keep pursuing that dream.
“God doesn’t give you the dream without giving you
the courage to take action to pursue it.” (Guidepost 2016)
Let’s bring in the year 2017 with that courage to pursue our dreams.
“For with God nothing will be impossible.”
Luke 1:37 (NKJV)
