I have learned, through the years, that there is nothing that I can do to earn my way into heaven. I can’t be good enough, love my neighbor enough, or try to do all the right things each day. For me, that is overwhelming.
God has given His grace, unmerited favor.
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God. (Ephesians 2:8 NIV)
