SOME CAUSES FOR SELF DOUBT IS FAILURE AND PEOPLE’S OPINION.

FAILURE CAN BE DEVASTATING. WHEN SOMETHING WE DO DOESN’T SUCCEED, WE BEGIN TO DOUBT OUR ABILITY. BUT DID WE REALLY FAIL? OR, LIKE WE LEARN IN THE VERSES ABOVE, IS THERE A GREATER PLAN GOING ON.

MAYBE THIS WAS ALLOWED TO HAPPEN TO MAKE US STRONGER, TEACH US TO LEARN OF GOD’S GRACE, AND BE A LEARNING EXPERIENCE. HOW OFTEN HAVE WE USED A PAST FAILURE TO OUR ADVANTAGE, LATER ON IN LIFE? WE LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES. REMEMBER THAT GOD IS ON YOUR SIDE. HE TELLS YOU:

"I ALONE KNOW THE PLANS I HAVE FOR YOU, PLANS TO BRING YOU PROSPERITY AND NOT DISASTER, PLANS TO BRING ABOUT THE FUTURE YOU HOPE FOR.” JEREMIAH 29:11.
