To Try
And Fail
by
Barbara Philbrook
To try and
fail is never a sin,
just brush yourself off and try again.
But to
allow doubt to keep you from trying at all,
that would be a sinful depth into which to fall.
Thank God
for giving you the desire to start,
just take the steps needed to do what He's put on your
heart.
God would
not place the thought in your head,
and then desire that you to falter or give in to dread.
Any doubt
or hesitation that you feel,
is caused by Satan, for his need to stop you is very
real.
Satan sets
out to halt the progress of God's will in your life,
he does this by causing doubt, hesitation or strife.
Rebuke
that old Devil, as is your inherited right,
Jesus himself gave you this power and might.
Tell him
"there is doubt, I know it is true,
but the doubt I am feeling, Satan, is doubt of you".
Stamp your
foot right there on the floor,
"go away Satan you can't discourage me any
more".
"God
is my strength and my might,
and where He leads me I know to be right."
Yes to try
and to fail is no disgrace you see,
I'll just keep on trying as my God leads me.
