As I look back over my life I am grieved to see how many times I failed the Lord yet He never gave up on me. Time and time again He forgave my sinful failures and redeemed my mistakes, turning them into material for ministry. Had he washed His hands of me He would have been well justified but He never did. Instead He picked me up, dusted me off, and put me back in His service. Don’t despair no matter how miserably you’ve failed. God will never give up on you!
“There has never been the slightest doubt in my mind that the God who started this great work in you would keep at it…”
–Philippians 1:6 (MSG)
Lord Jesus, because You never gave up on me I am finally being conformed to Your very own image. In Your holy name I pray. Amen.
