John 21:15–21 When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” He said to him, “Feed my lambs.”…..
16He said to him a second time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” He said to him, “Tend my sheep.” 17He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?”…..
Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, “Do you love me?” and he said to him, “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep. 1 8Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young…..
you used to dress yourself and walk wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go.” 19 (This he said to show by what kind of death…..
he was to glorify God.) And after saying this he said to him, “Follow me.” 20Peter turned and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them……….21 he said to Jesus, “Lord, what about this man?” 22 Jesus said to him…..
“If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow me!”
“I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” – Michael Jordan
Stop looking at your failures; Start asking others about your successes.
Stop comparing your life to others; Start living your life for others.
Stop trying to be a winner; Start accepting that you must lose.
Matt 10:39 Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
Romans 8:35–39 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36 As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep…..
to be slaughtered.” 37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth…..
nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
2 Corinthians 2:14 But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere.
