Showered in Grace

I am reading in Isaiah and I wanted to share this
with you since this is exactly how I feel. Isaiah is
having a vision and this is what he says in Isaiah 6:
This is exactly how I feel. The more I look at God by reading my Bible and listening to Sermons I see how sinful I am. But it doesn't stop there with me or Isaiah:
God forgave Isaiah's sins. Just like God forgives my sins. But there is more and this is what God asks:
God uses sinners showered by his grace to serve him.
I noticed that giving everything to God reveals a lot of weakness in my life that I need to work on but at the same time the more faults I see in my life the bigger the shower of grace is in my life.
v.5 Woe is me! For I am lost; for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts!
This is exactly how I feel. The more I look at God by reading my Bible and listening to Sermons I see how sinful I am. But it doesn't stop there with me or Isaiah:
v.7 And he [the seraphim] touched my mouth and said: Behold, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away, and your sin atoned for.
God forgave Isaiah's sins. Just like God forgives my sins. But there is more and this is what God asks:
v.8 Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then I said, Here am I! Send me. 9 And He said, Go...
God uses sinners showered by his grace to serve him.
I noticed that giving everything to God reveals a lot of weakness in my life that I need to work on but at the same time the more faults I see in my life the bigger the shower of grace is in my life.
