What will God think if I’m failure?

[Anonymous]

I never do anything right and never accomplished anything I feel so worthless and like a mistake, I have nothing good to show God. He must think I don’t try enough or that I’m a mistake just like everyone.

Would God hold you accountable if you try your best at something, but other outside factors are stumbling blocks? No.

Something my wife told be a few years ago, before we got engaged, is something that I've tried to keep in mind myself. That is that God does not call us to be successful, but rather He calls us to be faithful. It's fitting that I mention this because the Gosepl this morning at Mass was from the beginning of John 6, when Jesus feeds the crows of five thousand. All they had was five loaves and two fish, yet they were able to feed the entire crowd.

The point? Give God your best. Let Him do the rest.

If you need some encouragement, I would counsel you to read about the life of Saint Rose Philippine Duchesne. The key word there is "Saint". She is formally recognized by the Church as a Saint in Heaven. There is a woman who tried - unsuccessfully, mind you - to establish religious orders and learn native languages in order to spread the Gospel in the American Midwest. She's still a saint!

Plus, at your age, I think it's a little too soon to be worried about being a failure.

God cares about your character, not your financial situation.

[lightbulb27]

not sure. I can say the same many times. It's a process of discovery and refinement... recognizing, you are human with some "abilities" that need worked on. Thus God gave you his battle armor for the world. Even then, Apostle Paul failed and wrote about it.

Jesus is quite stern at times. He just wants people to serve God of love in this world, work for eternity rather than selfishness. If we fail, as He said when we get up there we get the answer "get away from me... I never knew you". That be a terrible thing to hear.

"Amazing Grace"... written by a man that worked a slave ship for many years... you can imagine what he did and saw... failings.

God has a heart for you, focus on living for eternal purposes, work on yourself as we all have to do, and let us know how you do. One "big bite" is a lot, so take small bites... small successes chained together.

If you have another God, then ask that God. My God be love, Christ... saving others trapped in this world.

nothing, he doesn't care much; he gave you free will, so he doesn't have to follow you... It's your life, your decisions, and your consequences. All is in your hands

Know your strengths and weaknesses, accept yourself, and unconditionally love yourself. If you can't do it alone, ask a specialist for help. Therapy really helps.

You are not a failure if you don't think you are. Find something you might like ot do. Maybe get a drivers license for example. Make a plan how to do it. Take each individual task one at a time. Complete each one and then once you are ready , take the drivers test. If you fail the first time, God doesn't care. He cares if you give up. Try again and hopefully you will succeed.

Remember that you are not a failure if you do not give up.

Love Him, pray to Him ask Him for guidance and you will have it. He created all of us in His image. You are Not a failure - and to learn and succeed we learn from our failures 👍🙂

Yesss

[Paul09]

All you have to worry about is learning from your mistakes. And keep trying to improve yourself. Keep learning about yourself a d other things that may interest you. Invest in yourself. Do jot worry about "man created gods" . They don't exist. Was created by man to control people with fear.

You read his word, the kjv bible and understand it and throw away the worldly teachings of it that you like many have probably heard all your life. The 10 commandments are still in effect and the sabbath is NOT Sunday through Friday.

[sean1234]

Ironically, if you were extremely successful at everything at least worldly, you might not care at all about God. The fact that you do care, one would think in God's eyes you would not be a failure.

[DaBiggestBird]

God made you as he did everyone else, and he NEVER makes mistakes.

[Asker]

But I’m so imperfect and I don’t fit any standards in society and I need makeup to look alright.

[handsomelad70]

YOU don't fit any standards? Try being a cover boy handsome 70-year-old black man with a 160+ IQ in a city of blue-collar schlubs.

[DaBiggestBird]

Screw society, everyone is imperfect, even Perfect Cell.

[sawno]

God doesn't judge, it's your experience to life. The real question is for your soul, did you get what you want out of this life?

[Asker]

On judgement day he will though and kinda

[DextroShade]

If you are trying to impress God then you need to find a good marriage minded man, submit to him, and be a dutiful wife and mother. Feminism is a one-way ticket to hell with decades of loneliness on the way.

[handsomelad70]

Nice 1924 thinking there, DextroShade !!!

[DextroShade]

@handsomelad70 I am not even religious but she brought God into it.

[handsomelad70]

Sorry 'bout that, DextroShade.

[Asker]

Only man I need is God

[DextroShade]

God commands you to submit to your husband and be a helpmeet to him. Feminists who reject His commandments will burn in hell for all eternity.

[Asker]

You are wrong because in no way am I rejecting his commandments, in the Bible it states that not everyone will get married and also you will be separated from God after death if you reject and refuse to repent of your sins, not just by rejecting his commandments. Read the Bible more!

[slatyb]

Good won't think anything. If you feel that way, consider getting counseling. You are still going and have lots of time to find something that makes you happy.

[strateguy632]

if you did not try, he is already disappointed but if you will keep trying and set good goals and try he will see you tried.

Blessed are the meek.
God loves you

@Dongie But Trump may get the White House next January.

[AngryCarl]

Let's assume for the sake of argument that God does exist. Then if you don't achieve anything that is God's fault for failing create you with sufficient innate business acumen. If God wants the plaudits he must take the brickbats too.

[OddBeMe]

1) You’re working with what your “god” gave you. So why would he be upset?
2) You’re wasting time thinking what a magical sky man who’s never revealed himself thinks of you, instead of making something of yourself.

[Yannae]

"Just like everyone" Yes you are like us, we all make mistakes. All you can do is not give up and continue to be better.

[SotiCoto]

Not applicable. There is no such thing as "God", so you don't have to worry about it having opinions.

[Dongie]

Prove it.

[Anonymous]

In the words of Alan Rickman from the movie Dogma, "Noah was a drunk, look what he accomplished". God knows what you're capable of.

[Dongie]

God don't think, he knows. God is love, how he gonna dis you?

[Dongie]

Reading replies I see a few don't believe in God. That's to bad.
You will.

[postaldudePL123]

There is no god! Even if, let's say, there is a god, he doesn't care!

[sean1234]

Seriously, why post?

[Sevenpointfive]

maybe you're a winner in someone else's eyes?

[jahaims]

Whatever you want. God is imaginary

[sirderpsalot123]

God most likely isn't real

[shortster]

That doesn't matter to Him.

[noohair]

What do you think that you failed at?
