1. The Circle of Regret

If only…

If only…

If only… abuse

If only…

If only…

If only… poor choices

If only…

If only…

If only… failed marriage

2. The Power of Grace

The Power of Grace is Released by Declaring What Jesus Accomplished for Us Through His Death and Resurrection!

1 Corinthians 15:9,10

For I am the least of all the

apostles. In fact, I’m not even

worthy to be called an apostle

after the way I persecuted God’s

church.

If only…

If only…

If only…Inflicting great

pain and hardship

Paul’s Experience:

1 Corinthians 15:9,10But whatever I am now, it is all because God poured out his special favor on me [GRACE]--and not without results. For I have worked harder than all the other apostles, yet it was not I but God who was working through me by his grace.

of Grace!
