Yes He does :)
انه هو الغفور الرحيم as it is written in the saint Qoran. Traduction : He is the forgiver :)

second chance? yes, might be… but, do we always learn from past mistake and realize the second chance?

yes…God always gives us second chance and even more ..we just sometimes do not see the releveance of every experiences He is giving us. Everything happens for a reason.. so whatever circumstances that comes our way, lets not avoid any of it, maybe a joy or sorrow.. every trial is a learning experience..and through that we gain knowledge and become a better person in the future.. Godbless to everyone.

When we make peace,
forgive,
something in our heart changes,
breathes.
Everything starts to blossom,
everything makes sense.
Love is.

Some human beings are convinced they have nine lives, like cats. Other human beings sense they are offered infinite opportunities for reincarnation in different worlds which also mean infinite opportunities to grow.

You know what Paul, I sincerely believe that in order to heal from such trauma, you have to make a decision that you are going to believe in the infinite mercy of God…so hopefully even those who have done wrong by others get that chance…I truly believe that we are all living in the glory of a perpetual second chance. This is humbling because when I think about my life in these terms, it helps me to know that I am no better than anyone, that pride is futile, but so is self-righteousness. The freedom of the abuser is in the victim’s healing.

God in his infinite wisdom definitely offers us a second chance. So different to human beings who often is we screw up in life, we don’t give others a second chance.

Perhaps who we allowed in our lives, fake people. Sociopaths can take their toll on a person.

I’m sure God offers us second chances, may be even more but the question is: Do we see them? Most of the time we’re so busy nursing our wounds that we do not see the opportunities passing us by until it is too late.

Dear Paulo, may be God always offers us a second chance in life, but in this material world we are prisoners in our bodies that are governed by the Laws of this World. Maybe God offers us a million chances for making things up, for our souls. Our soul lives beyond time and space and it is eternal. We all know that ‘life is like a river’ never comes back….LOVE Thelma

Because God love us.He try to offer us maybe more than second chances,all we have to do is understanding which was the error in our past behaviour,learn the lesson and understand the signes.We must have also courage for action under the influences of the heart,and is not always easy.An open mind should help.
