There is a reason for sin and there is a salvation
Let me begin with a reading from the book of Tobit ch. 13 v. 5: He will afflict you for your iniquities, but he will again show mercy on all of you.
This chapter of the Old Testament speaks about our morals. We are bound to fail because we have inherited a flaw from the Original Sin. We are born into iniquity. However God has designed that flaw in us in His original plan. We are flawed when we look only at ourselves but when we look wider we are but part of a perfect plan. His perfect plan involves the Fall, toil, forgiveness, redemption and salvation, even exaltation.
So do not be too down on yourself when you fail. It will pass. It is part of His plan to save you. Strive to be perfect, in imitation of Him, as a devotion.
Good things happen to good people. But know that all are part of His plan; the good and the wicked, the poor and the rich, the high and low, the greatest and the smallest. So treat every one as you would be treated. So says Jesus.
Amen.
