About this listen
Failure often leaves believers stuck in shame, unsure of what to do next. Many pull away from God, assuming they aren’t “clean enough” to pray, read Scripture, or come back right away. But the Bible tells a very different story.
In this FaithFuel Christian devotional, Bob Shaw explores what biblical repentance actually looks like after failure, using 1 John 1:9 as the anchor. Repentance is not self-punishment, groveling, or restarting salvation — it is a turning back toward God with honesty and humility.
Bob shares how withdrawing from God after failure only allowed shame to grow, while Scripture shows that conviction draws us toward restoration and condemnation keeps us stuck. God invites us to come back quickly, accept forgiveness, and take the next faithful step forward.
If you’ve ever wondered what to do after you fail — or felt tempted to pull away from God instead of turning toward Him — this devotional offers clarity, hope, and a healthier understanding of repentance.
FaithFuel is a weekday Christian devotional offering encouragement, clarity, and Scripture-based perspective for everyday life.
