We know that God is committed to saving his people. But does he ever become so frustrated with us that he regrets having made us in the first place? Do you annoy God? Do I annoy God? We have kids that we love, but they often annoy us too. So, do we annoy God? And do we annoy him to the point that he regrets ever having made us from the beginning? Or does he have a low-grade regret that we exist? A podcast listener named Chad just read Genesis 6:6 6 And it repented Jehovah that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. and writes in with the question: “Hello, Pastor John! In Genesis 6:6 6 And it repented Jehovah that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. , the Bible says, ‘And the Lord regretted that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him to his heart.’ I know that you’ve already done a podcast similar to this in APJ 1053 (“I Know God Loves Me, but Does He Like Me?”). But there you didn’t answer the big question that plagues my own life: Does God regret making me? The devil often hits me hard with this. And I know that we’re all sinful and deserve eternal death. But is God, deep down, actually remorseful and resentful of his children? Does he still wish that he had never made me? I understand that we get to heaven not by works but through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. But still, I want to please God. I want to make God proud, and I hope that he doesn’t regret me, even if he’s saved me.” What would you say to Chad?
