Why did God create me knowing all the sins I would commit?

Have you ever wondered why, if God hates sin, He would create beings capable of it? 

 I had this question nagging me for a while: Why did God create me, knowing all the sins I committed?

Recently, I came across a video by Peter Morrison. It resonated deeply as he offered a perspective that shifted my understanding: "God's infinite love for us  triumphed even His immense hatred for sin."

This concept struck me like a revelation. 

Our human capacity for love is limited. We love conditionally, based on actions and emotions but God's love transcends that. 

God's love isn't transactional. It's not based on our merit or the absence of sin. It's simply...love. In its purest form. 

He has created us with the freedom to choose, even if that choice leads to sin. He hates sin only because it separates us from Him. 

He loves us, not despite our flaws, but because He chooses to.

Basic Rosary Prayers (Tamil and English)

Sign of the Cross In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. பிதா, சுதன், பரிசுத்த ஆவியின் பெயராலே ஆமென். Apostles’ Creed I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth, பரலோகத்தையும் பூலோகத்தையும் படைத்த எல்லாம் வல்ல பிதாவாகிய சர்வேசுரனை விசுவசிக்கிறேன். and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, அவருடைய ஏக சுதனாகிய நம்முடைய நாதர் இயேசு கிறிஸ்துவையும் விசுவசிக்கிறேன்.who was  conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, இவர் பரிசுத்த ஆவியினால் கர்ப்பமாய் உற்பவித்து அர்ச்சிஷ்ட கன்னிமரியாயிடமிருந்து பிறந்தார். suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. போஞ்சு பிலாத்தின் அதிகாரத்தில் பாடுபட்டு, சிலுவையில் அறையுண்டு, மரித்து அடக்கம் செய்யப்பட்டார். He descended to hell; the third day He rose again from the dead; பாதாளத்தில் இறங்கி மூன்றாம் நாள் மரித்தோரிடமிருந்து உயிர்த்தெழுந்தார். He ascended to heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father; பரலோகத்திற்கு எழுந்தருளி...

Sacrifice vs Choice: My Journey with Jesus

When I first started seriously thinking about becoming a disciple of Jesus, I’ll be honest I braced myself for the sacrifices . I thought following Him meant giving up a lot of things I loved, or at least things that felt really important to me at the time. You know that feeling when someone tells you, “It’s going to be hard, but it’s worth it”? That’s kind of what I expected. Like I’d be constantly battling my desires, trying to be “holy enough,” and saying painful goodbyes to people, habits, or parts of myself. But here’s what actually happened: once I made the change... it didn’t feel like sacrifice at all. Sounds weird, right? Let me explain.  “Sacrifice” means giving up something you really want, something that matters to you. But now, as I grow in my Catholic journey, I’ve noticed my wants have started to change. My priorities have shifted.  What I truly desire most now is to be close to Jesus. And when that becomes your top priority, a lot of the other stuff that...

Psalm 112: The Storms of Praise, Blame and Silence!

6 For the righteous will never be moved; he will be remembered for ever. 7 He is not afraid of evil tidings; his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD.   So, as I was scrolling through Linkedin and a quote just jumped out and grabbed me. It went something like this: "Just such a solid rock is not shaken by the storm, even so the wise are not affected by praise or blame." Whoa. It was like a sudden jolt of understanding. Because let's be honest, that whole "unaffected by praise or blame" thing is about as achievable as telepoting to my next Mass.  My heart? It's more like a little sailboat on a very choppy sea. A bit of praise comes along, the sails fill, and I'm soaring! "Oh, they noticed ! They approved ! I must be doing something right!" Cue the happy dance, maybe a little internal pat on the back. Then comes the blame. Wham! A rogue wave hits. The little sailboat is tossed about, taking on water. Doubt creeps in. "Am I really that bad? Di...
