A bad decision, an action we shouldn't have taken, a moment of fear that led to an impulse that was wrong . . . and failure invades our life. It can happen when things are going great . . . Failure invades all of our lives at one time or another.
Some failures are minor and are overcome quickly.
Others are devastating not only in their effect on us . . . Periods of failure come into the lives of everyone. And with the glorious exception of Jesus, every hero of the Bible had their times of failure as well. The list could go on and on. And this is also true of Abraham.
