"And Peter remembered the word of Jesus who had said to him, 'Before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.' So he went out and wept bitterly." (Matt. 26:75)

In secular history, when we read of the great achievements of successful people, we are seldom told about their failures. For example, we read of the amazing record of Babe Ruth, a total of 851 home runs. But there is another record that is buried and never mentioned. Babe Ruth struck out more than any other man in history - 1,330 times. Thus, 1,330 times he suffered the humiliation of walking back to the dug out, but he never allowed failure to slow him down or weaken his effort.

We all make mistakes. Let us learn from those mistakes and make improvements.
