The God who restores-
C.S. Lewis once said that Failures are finger-post on the road to achievements
Let him make you whole again. When we fail, it is not the end of the road. Rather, it is an invitation to go further, to draw deeper into God's grace— a filled presence to grow in maturity.
Failure is an event not an identity.
Jesus is the God of restoration. Like the Japanese art "Kintsugi" where a broken pottery is repaired with gold to create an item valuable than the original, so God can repair your brokenness in a way that renews you with a priceless and precious purpose.
Restoration is not about erasing your mistakes, but building on them.
2. The God who heals your shame
Charles Spurgeon quotes that "We must not confide in the armour of God, but in the God of this armour, because all our weapons are only 'mighty through God'."
Shame can make us hide, doubt ourselves, or feel unworthy of love and purpose. It whispers that our failures define us, that our mistakes are permanent, and that we are too broken to be used by God. But God’s love works differently—He does not condemn your failures; He redeems them.
When you bring your shame to God, He meets you not with judgment, but with healing. He removes the burden that weighs on your heart and replaces it with freedom, confidence, and peace. His power is made perfect in your weakness, and through His grace, what once brought you shame can become a testimony of His glory.
You don’t have to carry shame alone. God sees you, knows your struggles, and invites you to step into the light of His acceptance and restoration. In Him, shame loses its hold, and you can walk boldly in the identity He has given you.
3. The God who speaks your future
Tony Evans said "God will meet you whenever you are in order to take you whenever He wants you to go.
God knows your potential. He sees the incredible YOU that is hidden inside you. He does not judge you by how you feel but he sees you for who you have created to be.
God sees so much more in you than you see in yourself.
4. The God who calls you by your name
Timothy Keller states that "It is not the strength of your faith but the object of your faith that actually saves you."
We take it all to God because the only one who can define you is God.
The question is "Who will you allow to define your identity today? The world? Yourself? Other people? Or will you let God tell you who you really are?
5. The God who sees you
Augustine of Hippo once told that Faith is to believe what you do not see; The reward of this faith is to see what you believe.
Despite our struggles, failures, or feelings of insignificance, God sees us fully. He sees your heart, your intentions, and even the battles you fight in silence. Walking by faith means trusting Him even when circumstances are unclear, believing that His presence is real even when you cannot feel it.
When God sees you, He validates your worth—not because of what you’ve accomplished, but because of who you are in Him. You are never invisible, forgotten, or beyond His love. Even in moments of doubt or loneliness, God’s vision of you is constant and unwavering. He sees your potential, your purpose, and the future He has prepared for you.
Faith isn’t just believing God exists—it’s believing that He sees you personally and intimately. And when you trust in that truth, you begin to live courageously, knowing you are never alone.
