Good Morning,
Carol Steficek wrote "LEARNING EXPERIENCES" with the purpose of discussing the fact that making mistakes is just like walking on stepping stones that eventually can lead to a discovery that helps you to be successful. Carol wrote, "We will all spend our entire lives learning and growing. Look at all you do the way great inventors did and the way God does. Life is a process of learning experiences." We need to learn to look at our so called failures in a different way. God will use our mistakes to teach us.
Hope you had a great Thanksgiving yesterday. Please continue to pray for our country.
God bless
Corinne & Carol

LEARNING EXPERIENCES
"My purpose is
that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love,
so that they may have
the full riches of complete understanding..."
Colossians 2:2
One interesting fact which I have read about a number of great inventors, like
Salk and Edison, is that they did not consider their many trials on the way to
their successful inventions or discoveries to be "failures" but
rather "learning experiences."
I doubt many of us look at life that way. We tend to be hard on ourselves
and think we have "failed" when we just need to learn from our
experiences and go on from there. We all gain understanding only from
experience. There is no easy road to completing any task or job and we do
not learn from osmosis. Life isn't that way.
God wants us to be encouraged by what we learn. God doesn't expect us to
stay as we are. Neither does He expect perfection. He expects
perseverance. As humans we will never be perfect. We will all spend
our entire lives learning and growing. Look at all you do the way great
inventors did and the way God does. Life is a process of learning
experiences.

Here are several people
who seemed to lack any qualities
that would ever result in success.
However, they surprised everyone
and became quite successful
