1 Timothy 1:14-16
New International Version 1984 (NIV1984)
14 The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
15 Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst. 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.
haha, paul i think i can fight with you being the worst sinner in this entire world. how many times have i failed You. how many times have i failed the expectations of the people around me. and self-righteously think that im justified for doing so. how many times, i point fingers at people, just because ive given myself far too much credit for having tried my best for them. and how many times, have i let all this stupid emotions get into my stupid mind. and how many times have i done stupid things because of it. i cannot let Satan keep doing this to me, and i need to stop need this to others. so this time, im not gonna say im sorry. im gonna show that i am. things may get harder, but i guess i need to learn that my dependence should be on God alone.
im sorry, i know i keep hurting you. and i guess time and God would be the best healer for now.
