Don't get me wrong - what we do is important. But it is infinitely less important than what Jesus has done for us.

The truth, whether we admit it or not, is that grace scares us to death. It scares us primarily because it wrestles control and manageability out of our hands - introducing chaos and freedom.

Jesus has done everything for you.

Real, pure, unadulterated freedom happens when the resources of the gospel smash any sense of need to secure for myself anything beyond what Christ has already secured for me.

Legalism says God will love us if we change. The gospel says God will change us because He loves us.

Sometimes God has to remind you that you're weak so that you can be set free from your "self-sufficiency."

Job's unraveling wasn't wrong or sinful; rather, it was emotionally realistic.
