But the way of the cross will point toward the place where you stop striving . . . stop pushing . . . stop every self-initiated effort--so that you can fall into the boundless, liberating, refreshing grace of God! Just imagine being love-driven instead of self-propelled. Imagine abandoning your life to Jesus instead of trying to save yourself. Can you imagine exchanging your fears for that peace that passes understanding? Being relaxed and free instead of stressed-out and anxious? If you can imagine enjoying God instead of trying to repay him, then you can imagine grace. So go ahead! Jump off the cliff of self-sufficiency. Leap out of legalism. Walk off the pier of guilt and condemnation. That's the only way you'll land in the strong arms of the Father who loves you . . . the Father who catches you--every time--in the grip of his grace.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Max Lucado</note> <subject> <topic>Christian Life</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Grace (Theology)</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">248.4</classification> <classification authority="ddc">L931-M46</classification> <identifier type="isbn">0849911435, 9780849911439</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15126/5.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15126/5.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071437.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
