Have you ever felt unworthy of God’s love and forgiveness?
Perhaps you’ve made mistakes or struggled with certain sins, and you find it difficult to believe that God could still accept and embrace you. If that resonates with you, I want to share some encouraging words from the apostle Paul. He writes,
“Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst.” (1 Timothy 1:15)
Paul’s words remind us that no one is beyond the reach of God’s grace. In fact, Jesus came into the world specifically to save sinners like you and me.
Regardless of our past mistakes or the extent of our brokenness, Jesus offers forgiveness, redemption, and a new beginning.
Paul himself, who was once a persecutor of Christians, experienced this transformative power firsthand. He recognized his own need for God’s mercy and acknowledged that he was the worst of sinners.
Yet, it was precisely in his brokenness that he encountered the overwhelming love and grace of Jesus.
So, if you ever find yourself feeling unworthy or burdened by your past, remember that Jesus came to save sinners.
There is no sin too great, no mistake too monumental that His grace cannot cover. Embrace the truth that you are never beyond redemption and that God’s love knows no limits.
Allow His forgiveness to wash over you, and let His grace empower you to live a life transformed by His love.
