A person can only fall once if he or she never gets up. But getting up and trying again is how we humans gain experience and become stronger. Babies learn this when they are trying to walk. I have not known a baby who never fell. Usually they fall and fall--and grow stronger and in better control of their muscles every day.
Righteous people are the ones who want to be better. When they fall, they rise with more determination to learn not to fall. We are all undergoing great changes as we strive to overcome our flaws and become more like Jesus Christ. We are bound to fall, but it is in the rising and trying again and again that we please God.
