Overcome Failure and Live With Purposeಮಾದರಿ

When confronting an obstacle or new challenge, it‘s tempting to think “I’ve got this” or “I’m just going to handle this the same way everyone else does.” But it‘s possible the Lord has a special way that you would have never thought of to get past this obstacle in your life.

What is the first thing you should do when facing a challenge? Talk to the Lord about it; pray. Prayer is the place that we start, and prayer is the place where we need to stay. 

Prayer is recognizing God’s power in our lives. When you pray, you’re saying, “Lord, I’m not good at this; I’m not going to be able to do this on my own.” 

Prayer acknowledges God’s wisdom – that He understands this problem far better than you, and He knows what you can do to overcome it. 

Prayer also acknowledges God’s compassion. By praying, you are saying that He cares about what you have to say and what you are facing.

He wants to hear from you all the time, but especially when you have a need. Prayer is the most important thing because when you pray, you are acknowledging God’s power, God’s wisdom, and the fact that God cares about you. 

Sometimes, you might not understand why He answers the way He answers, but still pray anyway, trusting Him. Pray while looking for His wisdom and pray acknowledging that He cares about you.
