If you are a caring person, conscientious and kind, you will be disappointed in your own actions some days. I have been told that one should be positive and recognize that one is doing the best that one can. This is good advice. I personally find it difficult to follow, although I try. The truth is that there is no human remedy for this, despite our best intentions. Hear the words of the Psalmist, though:
"The Lord upholds all those who fall; he lift up those who are bowed down." (Psalm 145:15)
The Lord understands our faltering nature. If we do not respond in our failings and shortcomings with a stiff neck of rebellion, but with a contrite heart, He will lift us up.
