Many people secretly carried a wrong belief in their walk with God—an invisible checklist in the back of their minds that goes like, “You need to do more. Try harder. Be better.”

It feels holy, but it’s exhausting.

And it’s exactly what the Law was designed to do.
Not to fix you, but to show you that you can’t fix yourself.

“The law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.” (John 1:17)

Moses stood on a trembling mountain wrapped in thunder.
Distance. Rules. Requirements.

Jesus, on the other hand, walked into our dust and said,
“Receive. Rest. It is finished.”

Two mountains.
Two methods.
Two completely different worlds.

The Law demands righteousness from you.
Grace supplies righteousness to you.

Think of it like a cup.

The Law keeps telling you, “Fill it up.”
Grace hands you a cup that’s already overflowing.

One focuses on what you lack.
The other focuses on what Jesus has already done.

And here’s the part we often miss:

Grace doesn’t lower the standard;
it simply changes the source.

Under the Law, the pressure is on you.
Under Grace, the supply is from Him.

When you catch that, the strangest thing happens.
Your shoulders drop.
Your breath deepens.
Your heart stops sprinting.

You stop trying to earn what Jesus already finished.

When you stop living like God is demanding something from you,
you finally discover the God who is supplying everything to you.
