The month of June is filled with graduations and open houses. Life is a series of steps and graduating from one level to the next. Some may take steps toward college or tech school, some may pursue finding a job or entering into a career. But I have found no matter which path you travel that these three steps will bring you success.
1.Face Your Fears- One of the greatest hazards to success is fear. Because of fear, many people have missed taking another step that would allow them to graduate to the next level.
2Timothy 1:7
“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”
There are very, very, many times that the Bible tells us not to fear. Almost always it is connected with God wanting to accomplish something in us and through us. Stepping into something new or different can be fearful if we try to do it alone. For those who will trust the Lord, God promises to give you strength and direction. The enemy of your soul will use fear to keep you from taking steps toward success. Face your fear in the name of Jesus and take that next step.

2.Forget Your Failures- Failure is not the end. Everyone has failed at something, at some point in their life. It is not if you fail but when you fail. To fail is part of life. It is how we learn and grow. Walking, talking, riding a bike. All of these were accomplished through of series of failure and success. There only way you can never fail is to never do anything.
“but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead” Philippians 3:13.
Never allow failure to make you quit trying. Forget your failures and move on.

3.Follow Your Faith- If you want to have a successful life both now and for eternity you need to follow your faith and let nothing hold you down.
"Fix your eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith"
Hebrews 12:2.
Pressures of life can become overwhelming.
Follow your faith.
There will be times when it seems no one really cares what is happening to you.
Follow your faith.
Voices will call out to you to quit, to go down a path you know is wrong.
Follow your faith.
Remember there is a path God has for you and to succeed you must follow your faith. Fix your eyes on Jesus as the only way of salvation. The bible as the only inspired word of God. And with meaning and with purpose follow your faith no matter what.
