Our hearts are continuously rebellious. Every time we sin in thought, word, or deed, we're essentially saying in that moment that, "I don't need you God. I don't want you God. I like my way better than your way." If this goes on day after day after day, year after year, month after month, it would understandable for God to say, "I've given you ten trillion tries. You're finished." But it's not. So in that sense, His grace is always surprising, never ceases to be amazing and His mercy is remarkably outrageous.

The law demands that we do it all; the gospel declares that Jesus paid it all.

Disobedience happens not when we think too much grace but when we think too little of it

Rest assured: Before God, the righteousness of Christ is all we need; before God, the righteousness of Christ is all we have.

The gospel is for the defeated, not the dominant.

Grace always runs downhill, meeting us at the bottom, not the top.

God is the one to be praised, not our transformation.
