"If we learn from our mistakes, why are we always so afraid to make a mistake?"
Here's what I think- because learning from your mistakes isn’t the best way to learn. We weren’t designed to make mistakes, we were designed in the image of a perfect God. Learning from mistakes is grace that God gives us, wisdom He imparts if we allow Him to and ask for it. Just because you make a mistake doesn’t mean you’re going to learn from it. Learning from truth and a perfect example is a better way to learn, especially since some mistakes can hurt you for life.
What do you think?
every mistake is a learning opportunity for sure. However we choose whether or not we will step back and see from it what the Lord and His grace is trying to teach us. Most totally miss it when mistakes happen and end up making similar mistakes repeatedly, while the wise and the few humbly admit they messed up and seek the Lord in how to change. I have to work on this constantly in my life. Its funny though because the less I try to fix myself and the more I allow the Holy Spirit to come in and mend me, the more transformation occurs. He makes me something beautiful.
