Who Would Have Thought?

About the Book

Most people you meet will form their own opinion of you; some will try to wash out your spots with their dirty water. But God is the only one who can wash you whiter than fresh fallen snow. I thank God for salvation through his Son Jesus Christ. What’s your story before Christ? If you tell, what would be the reaction from others? Who would have thought he was . . . I never thought she use to be . . . In 1 Corinthians 6:9–11, Paul writes a list of things that a lot of us were. But in verse 11, he says “But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the spirit of our God” (NIV). Still, there will be people with their opinions . . . Who would have thought she would be a devoted wife and a good mother? Who would have thought he would be a Preacher? Who would have thought she would write a book? Who would have thought he would get a degree? Who would have thought she would be a multimillionaire? Who would have thought he would own his own business? Who would have thought he would be the President?
