Isaiah 41:10<\/b><\/p>\n

Do not rejoice over me [amid my tragedies], O my enemy! <\/span>Though I fall, I will rise;<\/span>
\nThough I sit in the darkness [of distress], the\u00a0Lord<\/span>\u00a0is a light for me.<\/span><\/p>\n

Micah 7:8 (Amplified Bible)<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is a quote that says failure is temporary but giving up makes it permanent. Don’t let mistakes keep you from experiencing God’s best in your life. God is your ever present help in the time of trouble. (Ps. 46:1) If you make a mistake repentance is the first step to getting on the right track again. Don’t stop pursing the plan of God for your life!<\/p>\n
