Grace is so strange because it’s other than us!!! He is other than us. His love is other than us. When I was younger, a month ago![😂]()
, I used to be filled with thoughts about how much I love the Lord based on my actions, and I would feel better about myself and more confident before the Lord when my actions met some crazy standard of behavior that I had idolized in my head. If I didn’t meet those standards, I would feel so guilty. I would come sheepishly to the Lord as if my actions and failures were strong enough to cancel out the GRACE of God. His GRACE is bigger and stronger than anything we will ever do or face. I go before Him engulfed by Jesus!!! My life is hidden in Christ!! I stand in all that Jesus is!! I stand in His favor, His grace, His righteousness. I’m hidden in all that He is!! That’s our confidence to go before our God!!!
