It's All By Grace

At the cross we can forget about our tasks and accomplishments and wear forgiveness like a crown—a crown of belonging instead of a crown of power. Not only that, but the cross is the place where I am made complete. My possessions don't complete me. My gifts and achievements can't complete me. Even my family can't complete me. What a relief it is to jettison the world's false definition of being complete and fulfilled. It's all about knowing God and abiding in his love; it's about experiencing the spirit of adoption. Every good act and ambition proceeds from the rest of faith, from my completeness in Christ.
