Henry Cloud on Failure

Posted on November 10, 2021 Written by Mark McIntyre Leave a Comment


In reading his book Changes that Heal, I ran across this statement by Henry Cloud:

“Our failures do not surprise [God]. If they surprise us, it is only because we have too high an opinion of ourselves.”

What else can I say?
