Do you have a hard time making sense of God's law and how it applies to you today? You're not alone, but here are some thoughts to consider.
The grace of God in our lives is a gift that cannot be earned. When we begin to believe that we can work our way into His favor by following the law, we cheapen the sacrifice of Christ.
In our performance-driven society, we quickly pick up on the idea that our worth is tied to what we do and how well we do it. But Galatians shows us a better way, one in which we find our value in life with God, not in our works for him.
Fear of what others might think can be a big motivator for our actions, but as Christians, we are called to live out the Gospel, adding nothing to it and taking nothing away.
