“Made a mistake, but that doesn’t mean I’m a mistake”

We are not held to my past or my past decisions forever. I can change. If I’ve made a mistake, I can make it right and move forward in a positive direction. I should fix it.
I cannot sit on our laurels. A virtuous person who turns from righteousness and acts in an evil manner will be held responsible for those actions as well. We have the choice to do good or to do evil. But if we make a mistake or we start off on the wrong track, we can change our path, and change our lives.
God says that the wicked should turn away from sin and do what is right and just. Just because one has previously made a mistake does not make that person a mistake. There are second chances in life. God will acknowledge our conversion and react accordingly.
I can’t say, well, I never actually killed anyone so I haven’t done anything bad. But what if I wished the person dead? What if I held animosity for that person? I need to examine my actions and my motives. Where have I made mistakes, and what can I do better. I’m not mistakes, and I can change my lives for the better.
