“Does God allow people to make mistakes?”

If God didn’t allow people to make mistakes would we ever be able to really get anything right? I believe that much of what is seen as God’s judgement, especially on the scale of nations and civilizations, is really just the result of giving humanity free will and allowing us to experience the consequence of our actions.

If all my college exams consisted of multiple choice tests with only the correct answer as the available choice would my 4.0 average have any significance?

I wish He didn’t allow us to make mistakes. I’ve made a few at my job and my boss is getting upset with me.

I’m beginning to doubt my abilities. I ask God every day for His help at work. It’s never the same each day...some days are better than others.
