Read a couple of great blog posts from my friend Jonathan about failure. Then I read this in my devotional. I think God is trying to say something to me.
Failure provides the opportunity not only to humble the self, but also to be with the failure of others. If your life or mine were an untarnished success story, an unbroken upward spiral toward holiness, we might never come to understand the human heart.

Great Quote. I love me some Brenden Manning!
How about failure to write “thy self” instead of “the self” in your quote?
