Every Day is Like a Deck of Cards
Every day is a new oner When we are little, we are taught that if you plan your life, every day will go according to plan. Unfortunately, life doesn't happen according to plan in most instances. Life is like a deck of cards. Every day, it is shuffled and a new set of circumstances are presented. Sometimes it is good, sometimes bad.

A sermon recently expounded the value of failure not as failure itself, but as a means of growing one's sense of self worth and moving towards new experiences. Failure does not mean that one has failed in life's work, but is just a measure of how much more one has to do in life. If one task is not successfully completed, it does not mean that one is a failure. There are many reasons why a task fails. The analogy given was with Moses who successfully led the Israelites out of Egypt through the desert and established the ten commandments as a rule of life.
