I’m the Worst of Sinners

Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:16 But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his unlimited patience as an example for those who would believe on him and receive eternal life.

Observation: That is how I feel at times that I was the worst of sinners the way I use to live my life, there was no reason for God to care about me, but he did. He waited 46 years before My eyes were open to his grace and mercy. So now I have the testimony of a loving God that was willing to wait for this sinner.

Application: I need to honor God for his patience and share my testimony of his love and grace. He has already arranged for people to come into my path to give them the opportunity to have eternal life with him and all I have to do is share his love with others. I need to look for those opportunities to bring others to his loving grace.

Prayer: Dear Lord I can’t thank you enough for your love and patience to want me with you when this life is over. Open my eyes to those you want me to share your love with and put the words in my mouth that will bring them to you.
