regrets?

do you have any regrets? anything you desperately wish you could go back and change. i sure do. sometimes it is as simple as words i speak, while other times it is actions or important decisions made. while still struggling as to whether or not staying here this semester is beneficial for me and my health, i wonder about regrets. if i left here, would i regret it? some things can never be changed. i cant go back to high school and change things, and i wont be able to reverse any decisions i make about my life right now.

if god is omniscient and omnipresent and if he holds my life in his hands, why should i have regrets? if he has placed me in the right place at the right time, why am i plagued with the thoughts i made the wrong decision?

sometimes i realize just how much evil is present in my life. i am learning to recognize satan's deceptions. but just because i know they are there, doesnt mean i can easily ignore them. i know satan wants me to second guess everything i do, everything i say. he wants me to regret decisions in the past and allow that to take hold of me. but i dont want to let him. letting go of all your past mistakes, regrets, and hurts takes a long time and a lot of work. and satan will try everything he can to stop me from letting go of it all; slowly letting go of regrets is a lot easier said than done. but greater is HE who is in me, than he who is in the world.
