If anyone deserved to drag a suitcase of shame through life’s journey, it was the Apostle Paul. He was on a mission to kill off Christianity when he met Jesus up close and personal.
1 Timothy 1:15-16 (CEV)
I was the worst sinner of all! But since I was worse than anyone else, God had mercy on me and let me be an example of the endless patience of Christ Jesus. He did this so that others would put their faith in Christ and have eternal life.
Paul–proof positive that God’s mercy kicks shame out of the picture.
