"and His heart was filled with pain"
Genesis 6 says God's heart was filled with pain and that He grieved. That is the way God is. He hurts. He cries (Jesus wept). Yet he moves on. The problem that caused the pain does not mean the end of the road. It is part of the view along the way.
What grieved God in Genesis? He saw that evil filled the hearts of people continually all of the time and they mistreated others. Jesus wept when his friends were mourning other their brother's death.

God is our Heavenly Father. We are his children. He grieves when we do something that we shouldn't. I as a mother, grieve when one of my own children does something that I know is wrong. By being a parent, we learn just how our Heavenly Father feels when we do something wrong. We hold to our faith and keep going.
