Moral Failure
The question is not
What are we going to do
If we encounter
Moral Failure
The question is
What are we going to do with it
Once we realize
We did fail
Look at Saint Peter
He denied Christ 3 times
Even after he said
He would never deny Christ
Yet
He went on
To actually BE the ROCK
And have the whole foundation
Of the Church
Built upon him
Look at Saint Paul
Previously called Saul
Not worthy to be called an Apostle
And a killer of Christians
In the new Church
Yet the Lord converted him
And he became
Probably
The most prolific writer
And recruiter
In the Christian movement
What about Moses
A murderer
What about David
An adulterer
What about anyone
In the Bible
What about you/what about me
When we realize
We failed God
In some way
How are we
Going to
Let God use us
In the building up
Of his Kingdom
There are
No perfect people in this world
Only Christ
So you failed
So what
You can still be
On the team
And maybe
Just maybe
A star
On the team
Of our Lord
