In reality, if anyone had the right to not tolerate falling into the same sin, it's God. He is perfect and holy and yet He is so patient and merciful to me when I fail and fail again. When I reflect on who God is and how He walks with me in my imperfection, I am so convicted of my pride. Who am I not to forgive when I have been forgiven so much.

But I find it a comfort to know that God has patience with me, more than I could ever have for someone. I can't and won't change overnight, but that's ok because I have the desire to change, and God will help me.

I find that I sink lower even before I am done with confessing and making a resolution. It makes me feel worthless, sinful and unworthy.
