fresh start


"You may have a fresh start any moment you choose for this thing we call failure is not the falling down, but the staying down."
Mary Pickford

Do you ever feel like not trying anymore? You try and try and try and feel as if it will never work. Just put your 'thing' in the blank. "I am so sick of always _______________ and having it always______________________." Or - "I've done _______________so many times and nothing changes."

The easier thing would be to stop trying. But, that is 'staying down'and that is not what God has for us.

I love the reminder that we can have a fresh start at any moment....if we choose it.

Grace and peace,
Deb

This post makes me think alot, Deb.
Quote makes me think of an old Keith Green song.
Sad when the light goes out for people in hard times, Deb.
Also sad when people see His light coming from a person but refuse to recognize Him as the source of the light, preferring to think the specialness is human.
God bless you Deb : )
