Trust God

Actually, for most professing Christians, law, or a set of rules, is like a crutch. They limp around, supporting themselves on the crutch. God says, “Throw the crutch away and trust me.” And we say, “But what’ll I do without the crutch?”

I mean, I have discovered that it frightens people to trust God’s grace, really to commit themselves to that. We all want to hang on to a little set of rules that we keep. That’s our crutch. Doesn’t work.
