You seem to be an intelligent woman so I just decided to see how you play chess by looking at your last complete game. I was going through the game fairly quickly and saw that you had won a pawn on move 19. But then on move 21 you made a tactical error that I saw immediately. You are lucky your opponent did not see it.
I believe you could improve your chess a lot by studying a book on tactics or going to an internet site on chess tactics.

Wrong forum.
Also, giving unsolicited advice on someone else's game should always be done
publicly so everyone can see...
Wait... No that's not right is it, Yeah, what you're supposed to do is the other thing...
Where you don't give unsolicited advice, or if you do, you do so privately to avoid
being an a*******
Well done for getting that right.

What do you expect from 1200 players? Neither of us are in line for the World Championship.

Isn't playing chess spiritual to you?

Romans 3:23 refers to justification by faith at the moment of salvation in contrast to 1John 1:9 which applies to believers only. "21 But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, 22 even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe; for there is no distinction; 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus; 25 whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith." (Romans 3:21-25)
