Paul’s reflection on his past reminds us that God redeems and uses even our greatest mistakes for holy purposes. Spiritually, this passage reveals the nature of grace—a love so transformative that it rewrites the stories we carry about ourselves. Psychologically, it invites us to release shame and regret, recognizing that our brokenness doesn’t disqualify us; it prepares us. God calls us not in spite of our past but through it, transforming wounds into wisdom and failures into tools for healing. This week’s message assures us that nothing in our lives is wasted in God’s hands.
