To make mistakes is human; to stumble is commonplace; to be able to laugh at yourself is maturity.
~William Arthur Ward
...and, most importantly, to repent and return to YHWH’s ways (teshuva) is spiritual maturity!

Here is what Adonai says:
“A curse on the person who trusts in humans, who relies on merely human strength, whose heart turns away from Adonai. He will be like a tamarisk in the ‘Aravah — when relief comes, it is unaffected; for it lives in the sun-baked desert, in salty, uninhabited land. Blessed is the man who trusts in Adonai;
Adonai will be his security. He will be like a tree planted near water; it spreads out its roots by the river; it does not notice when heat comes;
and its foliage is luxuriant; it is not anxious in a year of drought but keeps on yielding fruit.” ~~ Jeremiah 17: 5-8
