servlet.findForward() null pointer exception question

Why would the following code throw a NullPointerException if the forward is
defined in the <global-forwards> section
of the struts-config.xml file if the jsp exists? I cannot get the
servlet.findForward() method to return any of the jsps
listed.  Any ideas?

return (servlet.findForward(IConstants.FAILURE_KEY));

 public static final String FAILURE_KEY = "Failure";

<global-forwards>
    <forward name="SystemFailure"  path="/systemError.jsp" />
    <forward name="SessionTimeOut"  path="/sessionTimeout.jsp" />
    <forward name="Failure"   path="/systemFailure.jsp" redirect="true" />
    <forward name="EditMemberTwo"  path="/memberTwo.jsp" />
  </global-forwards>

java.lang.NullPointerException
        at
com.egps.actions.EditMemberTwoAction.execute(EditMemberTwoAction.java:60)
        at
com.egps.actions.EditMemberAction.execute(EditMemberAction.java:61)

Thanks,
Bill
