Lent, Day 29: Failure

Day 29: Failure

I used to feel like a failure, often. My older brothers were really good at sports! Me? Not so much. (Not really at all.)

I got a new perspective when I found that a batter only needs to make a hit 1 time in 3 to be a great hitter! Imagine, a .333 batting average is great! This perspective helped me to creep out of the former way of self-doubt and second-guessing, into a way of positive self-care. Thank You, God!
