    based on 27 ratings
     | 19,088 views

    No matter what you have done in your life God is still standing by with forgiveness. Once He forgives you, He will use you for His glory. When we look at the Apostle Paul God shows us how he forgave, converted, and used Paul for His glory.

We have even said and done some things that we only did in the dark because we did not want the light to shine upon us. If the truth must be told, we all have done some things that we are ashamed of ...read more

There were no injuries, but there were fiery flames, an acrid smell, cars dodging one another, pedestrians pumping ...read more
