I broke my vow twice. Has God canceled it?translated

Reader question:

Hello. One day, out of ignorance, I swore to God that I would never do something again, but then I did it. I swore again that I wouldn't do this or anything like it, and I did, more than once. But after each time I always apologized to God. Then I went to confession and told the priest that I swore to God and did not keep my word. After confession, two weeks later, I did it again. Then I had a question: did God cancel this oath? All this time I had anxiety. What should I do?

Hello Maria.

In the Gospel of Matthew we find the following words of our Lord Jesus Christ:

“You have also heard what was said to the ancients: “Do not break your oath, but fulfill your oaths before the Lord.” But I say to you: do not swear at all: not by heaven, for it is the throne of God; nor the earth, because it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, because it is the city of the great King; Do not swear by your head, because you cannot make a single hair white or black. But let your word be: “yes, yes”; "no no"; and anything beyond this is from the evil one” (Matthew 5:34–37).

Are an oath and a vow the same thing?...
