How can we handle guilt and regret?
Years after the apostle Paul became a child of God, he still regretted that he had persecuted Christians ( 1 Tim. 1:12-15). He couldn’t undo the past, and he didn’t try. Instead, he devoted himself to do God’s will. The Lord still used him in a mighty way. This assures us that past mistakes needn’t ruin our lives-even when we can’t do anything to undo them. Christ removes our guilty past and gives us a glorious future. Remember the wonderful truth during this lent time that Grace of God and blood of Jesus can wash all your sins.
I am… not worthy to be called and apostle…But by grace of God I am what I am. 1 Corinthians 15:9-10
