Does your son struggle in math class? Did he miss the big play on the sports field that would have won the game?
Failures and fiascos will trip up your son. You wish he’d only see success, but that’s unrealistic. Even when we try our very best, disappointment and discouragement can still strike. And when it does, your son may experience frustration and exasperation. These are normal human emotions, but we don’t have to give in to them.
Instead, remind your son that failures don’t define who he is. If he has accepted Christ as his savior, he is a child of the King. Because of that, your son is of incredible worth to God. And that’s way more important than any school grade or sports event.
