God's Marvelous Mercy

In 1Timothy1:12-16 Paul marvels at God's mercy. In spite of Paul's horrible life he declares, "And yet I was shown mercy...and the grace of our Lord was more than abundant...that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost." The better I understand the extent of my own sin the more marvelous will be my grasp of God's mercy in delivering me from it. I am so very thankful that "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners."
