Mark,
Thank you for your response. It’s amazing how much of our lives can be eaten up by guilt and shame. I’m glad that God is a God of restoration. I understand what you meant when you said you didn’t find the relief you had hoped to find. I think it’s something that gets released after time instead of an instantaneous result. Focusing on God’s forgiveness is always the answer. Focusing on ourselves gives us nothing but more introspection and maybe more guilt and shame. Did I say maybe?
