For our faith to grow, it must be tested. We may not always pass the test that God puts before us, but if we learn nothing from these failures, there is no growth in our Christian lives. If we let an obstacle keep us down and block our way, we can never go forward. If we rise up and overcome the obstacle, we may continue to go forward. We must learn that failure provides chances for us to grow.
Proverbs 24 : 16
For a just man falleth seven times and riseth up again.
