Been almost twenty years since I got my first one. Haven’t regretted any of them yet. They are each related to a turning point in my life. Things I’d rather not forget.
Thanks for the kind sentiments though. :-)
Many things in the bible are not as cut and dry as many (including myself at times) might want to believe. And I believe that many passages of scripture can be interpreted in many different ways by those “honestly” seeking to know God's will, and NOT just to justify the actions they are already taking, or wish to take.
And I feel pretty confident that God will look into our hearts and see that we were doing our best with the information that we had at the time, and if and more likely when we were wrong about something and made the wrong assumption about what God wanted.. then I have full faith and confidence he wont hold that against us.
For God can see into our hearts and knows the truth motivations behind what we did.
