When was the last time you blew it? I don’t mean a little mistake or a small oversight; I mean the kind of hair-raising, heart-stopping, mind-numbing blunder that makes you want to curl up fetal-style in the corner. When you have owned your mistake, done everything you can to fix it; when you have implemented a system to avoid a repeat, and when you have spent time in prayer asking the Lord to reveal any blind spots that may have contributed to it, you must receive God’s grace even if it’s the only grace offered. Remember what it feels like to fail, but don’t wallow in it. Let it compel you to lavish grace upon those who will one day need it from you.
