We need to remember - this life is a journey - not a sprint. There will be many things, and people, who will try to knock us off our path. But in spite of these - we must persevere and stay true to our beliefs --- God is Love, God Created us from Love, and His Mercy know no boundaries!
You may ask "but, what if I fail - is all lost?" No - not all is lost, but unfortunately, yes, we will fall from time to time - but that should not change our core beliefs - if anything it should strengthen them. For in our failings we experience the true love and mercy of the Lord. It is in those moments when you are horrified at our behavior and feel the weight of our sin that God's mercy lifts us up, brushes off our knees and places us back upon the path that leads us to Him.
