    There is something I want you to know. You are not perfect, but you’re
    useful in the Kingdom of God. Yes, you have done somethings that have
    caused you to feel ashamed. However, once you gave your life to Jesus
    Christ, all has been forgiven. This is what you have to continue to remind
    yourself, the Lord did not save you to become useless. You serve a God,
    that has given you purpose. This is hard for some to comprehend, because
    the mistakes of their past still dominate them. However, the Lord knows
    what happen and has taken these negative things, and has used them to
    fuel your ministry. How, by letting others know, they are not bound by their
    mistakes, but can be set free from them through Jesus Christ. This was the
    purpose of Paul’s ministry, to share the gospel with the Gentiles. To help
    them to see there imperfections, and know by accepting Jesus Christ they
    will be useful in the Kingdom of God. 


    In Romans 1:16-17 , Paul is telling his readers in Rome, they are not to be
    ashamed to share the gospel. Also, they are to live by faith. In verse
    sixteen, Paul is letting them know, he’s not ashamed to share the gospel.
    The Gospel is shared not only through words, but also through actions. The
    Gospel lets us know we are all flawed, and we need to be saved from our
    sins. Salvation is only possible through Jesus Christ, because He was
    crucified on the cross for our sins. Therefore, once we embrace Christ we
    are saved. Paul wants everyone he comes in contact with know, they are
    not outside the reach of the Lord. Some may feel they are a lost cause, but
    that is not how the Lord views anyone. That’s why Paul on various
    occasions gave his testimony, about his encounter with the Lord. Because,
    after hearing what he had done, and the Lord still gave him purpose. Will
    let others know they are not a lost cause. When the gospel is shared, the
    power of God is presented giving everyone who hears. The opportunity to
    be saved when they place their faith in Jesus Christ. Through making this
    decision the righteousness of God is revealed through faith. When you
    embrace the Gospel, then you are making a decision to live by faith.
    Knowing you are not perfect, but you are useful in the Kingdom of God. 
    Yes, you are flawed and have made some mistakes, but you still have
    purpose. Therefore, its time for you to live by faith, and not be ashamed to
    share the Gospel. Why, because you have been changed by the Gospel,
    and you want others to experience this life changing Gospel. Continue to

    walk into your blessing!
