Fixing my mistakes

他们不听耶利米书,却要他为他们祷告。

If I didn’t mess it up, that’s a summary of part of Jeremiah 37.  They wouldn’t take his advice, but they wanted him to pray for them.

How often does God clean up/prevent a mess from my bad choices?  And how often are the messes I get into because He wanted to offer me a chance to learn something?

Experience is what allows you to recognize your mistakes when you repeat them.¹

And do I ever, like many politicians, downplay a bad choice or avoid acknowledging I had anything to do with it?

“Mistakes were made” generally means “I/we really screwed up!”
