Turning the page on a New Day

Have you ever known somebody that just seemed like no matter what, they just couldn't get it all together?

Try as they may, they fall again and again. We've all known people like this at one time or another, or maybe it's you!  Maybe you feel like, if I only had another chance,  I'd do things different this time.
...A fresh start would be good!

You know the beautiful thing about that very thought, sometimes you just have to give that chance to yourself. Sometimes after falling, you just need to pick yourself up, brush yourself off and go after it again. Just think, as you work at it and you've finally come to realize, it's now or never, sometimes that's all it takes. 

We are all prone to mistakes, interestingly enough, when it comes to NOT making mistakes, nobody has the corner on the market! The idea is to get back up and determine in your heart that you're going to do better. You might say," So you think it's that easy huh?

Well! maybe not easy, but it's a start, and guess what? it's a new one, it's FRESH! It's an opportunity to show those around you that you really can be what you need to be, and what strength you can get from just being willing to give yourself that chance. 

I heard a story the other day and wanted to share it with my readers.

A story was told about how after Thomas Edison's team had finished working twenty-four hours to produce a particular light bulb; a young assistant was given the task of carrying the bulb up a flight of stairs  for testing. 

The young assistant unfortunately dropped the bulb as he nervously climbed the steps. Another twenty-four hours was required for the team to produce an identical bulb. When the time came for the replacement bulb to be carried up the stairs, Edison assigned the task to the young assistant who had earlier failed. Edison would not allow him to remain a failure. 

No doubt about it; we all need second, third, and at times even more chances. Thank God, he gives them. We should too. 

I hope this story gets a hold of your heart and allows you to give that chance to someone, even if they have failed before or perhaps, even if that someone is you!

Remember! 

I'm praying with you in mind,
