A Reminder to myself :


" Celebrate Success, Learn from Failure."
" Aim to succeed but be ready to accept failure."
–Mimi Cheong –


God, help me and my loved ones, especially my children, to learn to be resilient. Enhance and strengthen our ability to bounce back whenever we face set-backs in life. Teach us to be prepared to take on failure.

Help us to plan for success, to be steadfast in executing our plans, to celebrate success when it comes, but also be ready, when faced with it, to accept failure. Help us to be courageous to face up to failure and to be humble enough to learn from it.

Give us a humble spirit. Help us to be modest always. Don't ever let success go to our heads. Also, don't let failure sneak up on us to take us by surprise. Help us to be willing and prepared to accept failure. Help us to always be ready for it, to be prepared to face even life's worst-case scenario.

May you always be the first we turn to, and the only one we rely on when we have to lock horns with Failure.

Help us not be wise in our own eyes, but in all our ways, to acknowledge you, and to trust in you always.

Enable us to give thanks in all circumstances -even at the lowest points of our lives; and when all is well and rosy, help us not forget you but to acknowledge you, and be thankful.
