[PigRigger]

What liberals don't understand is that life is a series of adversities; character is defined by how one deals with them. In particular, one's confidence and determination are strengthen by first failing and then succeeding after trying again.

God is with us each step of the way. When we look to God for guidance our deliverance is assured:

"Come unto Me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; I am meek and lowly in heart and ye shall find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light."

[Revelation 911]

In particular, one's confidence and determination are strengthen by first failing

of our own works

and then succeeding after trying again.

....through the power of the Holy Spirit and the Grace of God

Is that what you meant ?
