David also said to solomon his son ,'Be strong and courageous ,do the work .Do not be afraid or discouraged ,for the lord God ,my God ,is with you .He will not fail you or forsake you until all the work for the service of the temple of the lord is finished
1 chronicle 28-20
My six year old boy is afraid to fail .His first grade teacher just reported to me that he is afraid to tryb reading out loud .He is nervous about addition and subtraction .He refuses to try new sports .None of these fears have foundation in lack of ability ....only in fear of failure .There is such a high value placed on winning these days that the perfectionist children of our world are afraid to fail
If my son never tries new things he will not know the joy of learning new things or succeding .He will simply have never failed .Failure is not where any of us want to be ,but we can take our failures and learn from them .Winning is great fun but failure is a great teacher
Next to trying and winning the next best best thing is trying and failing
Good!
