I CAME TO KILL… I CAME TO DESTROY… BUT YOU MET ME… WITH LOVE… NOT WITH FOE!

I AM YOURS… I AM YOURS… FOREVER… ✨ Outro (Soft, peaceful — fully surrendered) I was blind… Now I see… Not by my works… But by His grace… Amen… ✨ Who this is: Saul — zealous, violent, convinced he was right… until the Light broke through. He didn’t seek God — God sought him. The most dangerous man in the early church became its greatest missionary. Grace has no limits.
