God is kind, gracious, compassionate, and forgiving but he still holds humans accountable for their sins. We can receive forgiveness, but sometimes earthly consequences remain. We should thank God for his goodness and forgiveness and learn from our mistakes so that we will be wiser and holier in the future.
