Verse from 1 Timothy

我从前是亵渎神的、迫害人的、凌辱人的,然而我还蒙了怜悯,因为我是在不信的时候,由于无知而作的。我们主的恩典,随着在基督耶稣里的信心和爱心,在我身上越发增加。 (提摩太前书 1:13, 14)

Even though I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent man, I was shown mercy because I acted in ignorance and unbelief. The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. (1 Timothy 1:13, 14)

Like Paul, we don’t need to parade our failures or to pretend they didn’t happen. Instead, we can thank the Lord that through His grace and power, our past is forgiven, our present is changed, and our future is bright with hope for all He has prepared for us.

Only Jesus can transform our life.
