Thoughts on remorse vs repentance? My husband was a really devoted 'Christian.' He is working really hard in recovery, and while he doesn't fully reject God, he doesn't go there much. Words like, "I prayed, and prayed. I really believed God would take care of this..." It is confusing, so he doesn't really go there. I see him stuck with changes in his heart. I don't know. Please pray for him.

Remorse is feeling bad about something. Repentance is actually turning away from it and toward God, leaving it behind to pursue him. Who are your husband's Christian community that he is engaged with as part of his recovery? Long-term recovery is never a solo event. I will be praying!
