it’s not that you fall, b/c He never promised that we wouldn’t but it’s what you do after and what you take from the experience. I see ‘falling’ as the reminder that we do need Him and acts as proof of His promises of being there inspite of. B/c if you can say you’ve fallen and you’re still here and still in His grace, then….. He has not left you once and His promise has been fulfilled. And you can bet will continue to be fulfilled.

this month has been a month of stumbles for me too, but just as you said that you’re learning as much or more from when you fall… I’ve learned that there are some things that I just can’t overcome all that well on my own, humiliating for a moment—> to admit a weakness to another person… but the trials this month have made me seek out and speak to a friend and to ask her to become an accountability partner for me. I feel a lot more free since then… like I can breathe again, like the noose around my neck has loosened. God does not want us to be alone, to struggle and battle forward alone… as trini said, we can turn to Him, but we can also turn to eachother.
