How does someone who believes in a sovereign God handle regrets? I believe the first and have the latter. It's a conundrum.
I believe God's purpose was served by my bad decisions throughout life sometimes in ways that are clear and sometimes not so much. I also believe God was dishonored by these very same decisions.
I would go back make different choices about hundreds of things. But I wouldn't give up the wisdom, discipline, and blessings God has brought through my bad decisions. God has grown me through my foolishness, but I still wish I hadn't been a fool.
