A Proper View of Mistakes - BENEFITING FROM A PROPER VIEW


Having a proper view of mistakes will help us to cope constructively when they occur.  We will be more at peace with ourselves and others.  If we endeavor to learn from our mistakes, we will become wiser and  more likable.  We will neither become overly downhearted nor think badly of ourselves.  Appreciating that others are also dealing with their mistakes will draw us closer to them.  Most important, we can benefit from learning to imitate God's love and his willingness to forgive freely. -Colossians 3:13.

Did Margaret's mistake mentioned earlier, spoil the family occasion?  Not at all.  Everyone saw the funny side of it, especially Margaret, and enjoyed the meal-without the macaroni!  In later years, the two grandsons retold the story of that unforgettable meal to their own children and recalled fond memories they had of their grandparents.  After all, it was only a mistake!
