-I feel this sums up how i felt last night...and it was the first song i put on.

-I didn't need to climb the boulder.

I Told You So

I feel this is something God could repeat very often.

"Talented with reason, i cover all the angles.  I can fail before i ever try."

It seems God gave us the gift of foresight.  We can take memories of the past to conjur up possible outcomes for situations of the future.  Theoretically we can make the best of any situation if we just think things through before acting.  Yet we still fail.

I suppose this could be contributed to the fact that we come upon new situations that seem unfamiliar to us and make wrong dicisions.  But God also gave us the ability to learn from others.  People have gone before us and made the wrong decisions.  They tell us in illaborate ways not to play with fire, to wash our hands before eating, to just say no.  Yet we still fail.

So we make mistakes.  It is okay.  Very few are lethal.  We live on to make the right decision the next time around.  Encountering the same thing we did at some point in the past our minds return to the situation and let us know of how things will most likely turn out.  We have the power to course correct.  Yet we still fail.

And this i don't understand.  Why do we continue to fail?  Why do i continue to fall short?  I suppose all i can do is continue to love God for the grace he lavishly pours out on us.  And pray that next time, maybe, just maybe, the next time i won't fail again.
