Howdy Welcome Ya

Does God let you make mistakes? 
You bet cha
But you know what?
You are going to learn from it
And that would make you a better person
You will only learn by doing
And doing you will make mistakes
It comes with the territory
He is a gentle God
He knows we are not perfect
And will make mistakes
That’s why He is not mad at you
When you messed up and say “I am sorry”
Are you really sorry?
If you are then move on
There should be no condemnation
As God does not condemn
So the next time you make a mistake 
Remember that
God loves you 
And He wants you to live a happy life
Not a life full of fear
Full of resentment
Full of self loathing and hatred
Be gentle on yourself
Take good care of that body
Say good things
You only have you
Twenty four hours
Day in and day out
Constantly
So the more good things you say about yourself
The more you are going to believe it
So why not make the most of it?
Life is full of surprises
Take them with both hands
They are life’s presents
For the good of you
So go on 
Live 
Be daring
Make mistakes
Laugh out loud
There is not one way to live
Just like there is not one way to do
Experience
Learn
See
