Restore to Truth 2 - The Truth About Failure


You Are Always Successful

The Illusion Of God’s Failure

Humankind imagined that there were things God may have wanted, but couldn’t get. He may have wanted to achieve something but was not able. God may have needed something and did not have it. To explain why God had unfulfilled needs, they created the illusion of failure: that God could possibly fail. They reflected their perspectives on God. So, as they meditated on God’s possible failure, fear was created.

Before, there was no fear. There was nothing to be afraid of: God dominates everything! God Himself is the all-powerful, all-glorious, and all-miraculous One! All can only be good, what can possibly go wrong?

Yet, out of the fear, humankind created the illusion of God’s failure.

The Truth About God’s Failure

Remember that the Universe is the result. “It is finished.” Every moment in the Universe is at its perfection. There is a time for everything, and every season has its special purpose under the Heaven, for God has made everything beautiful in its time.

Which season is not perfect in its time? Even in the barrenness of winter, all is at utmost perfection, for this state allows roots to grow deepest underground. Which moment is not perfect at its time? Even during the desolation of a demolition, all is at utmost perfection, for this allows for structures to be built anew.

He has set Eternity in our heart to grow and expand infinitely. He has completed time on the earth from the beginning to the end. Everything God does cannot be added or be taken from.

The Illusion Of Your Failure

In the world we live, there are certain results that are defined as ‘good and successful.’ Therefore, when problems are not resolved in such ways, we have the illusion of being ‘bad or having failed’. Sometimes, I wonder if this is the result of eating the fruit of the tree of the ‘knowledge of good and evil?’

For example, there may be financial difficulties, which you desire to solve in certain ways, such as making more income, or cutting expenses, etc. Yet, when you achieve what you seek, the spirit of lack still lives in you, so you still do not feel content. Then, you realize what you believed to be “successful” may not be.

On the other hand, you finally overcome by choosing to be content and rich in your heart. Through the change of perspective, even in the midst of “failure,” you find success and perfection. Then, you realize what seemed to be failure may indeed be success.

In fact, if you live long enough, you’ll see things are solved successfully in ways you may have initially defined as failure. So, there is no failure, only the illusion of failure.

The Truth About Your Failure

Scientists understand this. Not only do they expect failure, but they also expect and enjoy it. True scientists understand that failed experiments are not ‘failures,’ like Edison and his invention of the light bulb.

So, when you experience the opposite of your desire, these are not failure. Indeed, these are preparations for you to truly experience your desires, when they come later.

In fact, when you experience the opposite of success (failure), it’s a sure sign that success is on its way! Look at people who have made great achievements. Without exception, they have all first experienced great opposition (failure) beforehand! So do not resent any setbacks or obstacles. Face them in peace. Walk trough them joyfully and be exceedingly glad because greater victory and glory has been granted you from Heaven!

What many people have defined as ‘failures’ are indeed still in ‘successive’ processes. So how can they be  failures while in process? In fact, all ‘failures’ point you to the path of success. They are all parts of success.

The Truth is Love can never fail. Neither can you.

The Purpose Of The Illusion Of Failure

Experiencing the exceeding glory of success requires the illusion of failure. If all you have ever experienced is ‘success,’ then you could never experience the joy of it. It would just be something you have always done. You would know what you were doing, not knowing it was ‘successful.’ And, you would never experience the glory of success for you would not know what it’s like to succeed.

If all you had ever done is ‘touchdown!’ Surely you may be very joyful at first, yet, soon you would lose the excitement, until it became totally meaningless.
  
The Ways To Step Out And Profit From The Illusion Of Failure

Do not blame or judge your circumstances as ‘failure’ because what you resist will persist. And these illusions of failure will become ‘reality’ to you, as you get caught up and lost in them. On the contrary, embrace them with peace and gratitude. Rise above the illusion and recognize them as sure guides that point to success!

All lives come in cycles, for this gives them meaning. Indeed, all the stages of your life are blessings appearing with many faces. When you understand this, there will be gratitude and amazement flowing from your heart. You will be thankful for the ‘failures’ in your life and feel surprised that it took you this long to recognize such glorious treasures.

Therefore, profit from the illusion of failure. It is designed for you to apply your wisdom and experience overcoming!  You will truly understand that you have always been successful. So, in fact, there is no such thing as ‘failure’ - only success appearing with many faces.
