As much as regrets can come from a time when we have made a mistake, often the most damaging type of regret takes hold in our lives when we bear the burden of things that we have had no control over. We buy into the lie that if only we would have done more or would have been more vigilant the circumstances would have changed, effectively letting other people off the hook for this sin and instead shouldering it for ourselves.
That type of regret can damage not only our relationships with other people but also our relationship with God. It can separate us from God as we have on a Savior complex or thinking that God did us wrong.
Today is the day to set aside all of our regrets. To leave them at the foot of the cross and find forgiveness and healing from our Savior.
