A Life of failure can become a life of victory

A Life of failure can become a life of victory

Today I will share the life story of John Mark.  He is a story of failure and restoration.  John Mark was given a chance to go on a missionary journey with Paul and Barnabus but midway through the journey he left.  Later Barnabus wanted to take John Mark with them again and Paul did not.  An argument followed and the results were that Paul and Barnabus parted ways.  Later however we see Paul and John Mark reconciling and John Mark even became a valued member of Paul`s team.  His is a life of failure but eventually becoming a story of victory.  That is how we must look at our failures.  They are stepping stones to future victory.  The secret is learning from our mistakes and growing from them.  Asking the Lord to help us and then becoming the person God always intended us to be.
