If God would of left me alone

[Swingbeepdig]

Sometimes, when I see some of the worst characters in the street, I feel as if my heart must burst forth in tears of gratitude that God has never let me act as they have done! I have thought, "If God had left me alone, and had not touched me by His grace, what a great sinner I would have been! I would have run to the utmost lengths of sin, dived into the very depths of evil. Nor would I have stopped at any vice or folly, if God had not restrained me!"

I feel that I would have been a very king of sinners, if God had left me alone. I cannot understand the reason why I am saved, except upon the ground that God would have it so. I cannot, if I look ever so earnestly, discover any kind of reason in myself why I should be a partaker of Divine grace.

I, on the other hand, am grateful to God because He watched me do most of those awful things that folks in the streets do. He allowed me to plunge to depths that, I believe, the average saved and unsaved people out there have never even imagined. Truly, wretched describes my whole being when in comparison to a Holy God. But, He loves me and showers me with His Grace and Mercy. Heavy on the Mercy. Bountiful new Mercy every morning. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you for saving a wretch like me.
