You are not defeated by falling—you are only defeated by refusing to rise. Let today be your answer to despair. Get up, and walk on.
“The just man shall fall seven times, and shall rise again.” (Proverbs 24:16)
“If you fall, rise up. If you fall again, rise up again. Only do not abandon your Physician, lest you be condemned … Wait on Him, and He will be merciful, either reforming you, or sending you trials.” (St. Peter of Damascus)
May this day be marked not by perfection, but by perseverance. You are upheld by grace, even in your weakness.
