"None of us can say that we have no regrets. Often we are led down paths of bad choices - some paths longer than others - which can have a lingering effect on the mind, body, and soul. God never gives up on us! Even if we've made poor choices in the past that have left us with regret, we can choose how we will live now. We can choose to continue destructive living, simply wallow in regret, or we can run to Christ believing that He has ways to "restore...the years that the swarming locust has eaten" (Joel 2:25). When we repentantly seek His healing and freeing power, He is merciful. While some consequences from the past may remain, we can be confident that God has a good and glorious future for those who trust Him!" - Joe Stowell, ODB
