The ABC's of Dealing With Regret
A - Assess your situation to gain the right perspective. (Luke 15:13-17)

We all lose perspective through:
1) "All or nothing" thinking
2) Over generalization
3) Emotionalism
4) Perfectionism
5) Catastrophizing (ed note: Pastor wasn't sure if that was a word but I say we run with it.)

Steps to take for the proper perspective:
1) Write down exactly what you regret.
2) Discuss the situation with a godly individual.
