Really! This is happening to me again?
Have you had to retake a test? Recently I didn’t pass a online test. At the end of the exam read, “Retake Test.” Very discouraged, I chose not to retake the test.
I felt the words impressed upon me. “Every test you retake does not mean you failed.” (James 1:1-3) In life when you find your yourself in a repeated situation … retake the test, to do better, to get a better score, and to get a better grade than before. Avoid contaminating today by holding onto any unpleasantness of yesterday. “Don’t throw away all of yesterday’s progress.”
Father God does not want any of us to fail any faith test, Job 7:17-18. The God of another chance, refines us for the retest. “God ordains tests for us, not for his sake, but for ours.” The retest is not for punishing … it is an opportunity for positioning, James 1:12.
Thank You Jesus for Your grace like a river, unfailing mercy and incredible knowledge that abounds in the test retake.
