Why God Allows Us to Learn from Our Mistakes

God is quick to forgive, and he’s given us the gift of confession
so we can return to a relationship with him after sin. But this
love he has for us is so great that he never wants us to be caught
by sin again, which is why he allows our sins to have consequences.
Just like your parents would teach you why something is wrong, God
helps us build knowledge of sin and its consequences by letting us
experience them. Without learning from our mistakes, we would just
keep falling into the same sins, separating us from a relationship
with God. Today, Fr. Mike explains why God lets us learn from our
mistakes, and how it shows the depth of his mercy.
