“For freedom Christ has set us
free; stand firm therefore, and do no submit again to a yoke of slavery.” The
Apostle Paul, The Bible
Anything but grace
alone is grace +. Grace plus ____. We live our lives under grace and add laws
to ensure us of our spirituality and spiritual state before God. For some
reason we are drawn to working for something rather than receiving something.
We are wired to believe that what you put in you get out. One of the things
that Jesus Christ does when we trust Him is that He changes this hard-wiring.
Because of Christ we stand on grace not on works. Yet … we need help with the habit. We need help being transformed and moved out of this daily habit that our hearts, minds and bodies know as natural. We have been in slavery and Christ is calling us to freedom. It takes adjustment and the more we follow Him, the more it gets adjusted.
Live into grace, into freedom and into the transformation that God promises.
**Sit again in silence for as long as is available to you.**
