When Is Failure Predictable?

Fear is powerful as well as alarming, for it can control your life. William Shakespeare identified the source of fear in his play Henry VIII: “Suspicion always haunts the guilty mind.” Guilt is the consequence of doing wrong.

Failure in some ways is predictable, for every person is an imperfect human being. Every reasonable person is aware of this truth because everyone has sinned and fallen short of God’s glory. As we confess our sins to God, he forgives and cleanses us from all unrighteousness.

Jacob felt justified in cheating his brother Esau out of his birthright as well as the father’s blessing. So it took decades for him to accept his sin and seek forgiveness. 

God will help you accept his grace and mercy. This will free you from fear and guilt as you accept responsibility for whatever has to be cleansed from your heart and soul. Do it now! God bless you.
