Resilience is a trait that the Lord seems to be pleased with. Tenacity; stick-to-it-ness... bumps and scrapes are part of the course; but, a child of God will get back up, brush off, square the shoulders and press on. It's a trait of God in you; the hope of glory.
16. For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.
I believe this verse among others throughout the scripture tells us to examine ourselves to see if we are born again. a "dipstick" check if you will. If you stay in sin then investigation needs to be done on your salvation; but, if there is an inward hunger for holiness then that is a fingerprint of the Holy Spirit of God dwelling in an earthly tabernacle.
