God allows us to go through failure-so that we can be where we should be to do what will prepare us for our calling.He sometimes allows us not to be considered for anything,even though we qualify,so that we can be where He wants us to be-but most importantly,where we want to be-even though we do not know yet.
Sometimes,God gives us opportunities and we mess them up.Then we want to blame him.But He is not to blame.God has blessed each one of us with a brain,but he leaves the choice to us on how to use it.He will sometimes grant you an opportunity to obtain an educationn but He will not study for you.
Even though God gives opportunities,he leaves it up to us to decide what we do with them.Sometimes we do not work hard at succeeding and when we fail we want to ask "Where is God"?The only time we should ask where is God,is when we have done all that we can to succeed.God works with our efforts.If we do not work hard,we will not accomplish much.
This analogy also applies spirituality.God,out his love,has given us the gift of free will-which means He cannot make decisions for us:all He does is to guide us.Furthermore,it is God's desire that we may all be holy-but He has left us with a role to do.As much as God has given us strength to overcome,he has left it upto us to apply effort and work hand in hand with him to overcome sin.
Thus,we can conclude:failure/success is determined by our actions and the effort we put in.Same as it is with our salvation-as much as salvation is free,we have a role to play.And we can only blame ourselves for not making it to heaven.
God has given all-even the life of his son-Jesus,to ensure we make it to heaven.He has given us the Holy Spirit,His Word,the testimony(Spirit of Prophecy) to know what we ought to do to make it to heaven.
You decide if you want failure or success
and it is up to you,if you want to be in Heaven.
