What does it mean that “God repented?”

Discussion question for September 27, 2013.

The Bible records that God “repented” or “regretted” that He made man (Genesis 6:6).  How do you reconcile this emotional response to God’s sovereignty?  How could God be disappointed by an outcome if He already knew it would happen?  How does this glimpse into God’s feelings influence your understanding of Him?  What does it mean to your relationship with Him?
