[Faith-talk] guilt

[Debby Phillips]

Vejas, I'm wondering first of all why you felt that it was 
necessary to tell the teacher about do.  She didn't give you any 
answers, just told you what would be on the test.  I don't know, 
maybe I have a warped conscience or something, but I really don't 
know that you cheated.  She didn't give you the answers, you 
didn't ask her for the information.  I don't know, maybe I'm 
wrong here, but I just don't quite understand.

As for your question, I do obsess sometimes, but truly, once 
confession has been made, and forgiveness given, it is a betrayal 
of God's blessing to us to keep going over and over it.  So I try 
to tell myself that I was sorry, I have repented, I have 
confessed, I have been forgiven.    Debby and Nova
