For the One Who Feels Like A Failure

You did everything you could.

You poured your heart into it—your time, your prayers, your energy.

And somehow, it still fell apart.

Now you’re left holding pieces of what could’ve been, haunted by the question: Was I not enough?

Let me say this gently but clearly: failure is not who you are.

It may be part of your story, but it is not your identity.

“The Lord upholds all who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down.” – Psalm 145:14 (NIV)

God is not measuring your worth by your success rate.

He isn’t disappointed in you for trying and falling short.

In fact, Scripture tells us He draws near to the brokenhearted, not the perfect.

He lifts up those who fall.

He restores what’s been lost.

He writes redemption into the middle of collapse.

What feels like an ending may just be the setup for something new—something deeper, more beautiful, more grace-filled than you imagined.

You are not finished. And you are certainly not forgotten.

—Rick
