The Fall

Growing up in the church, attending a Christian school and now a Christian college, I've heard about "The Fall" alot. It's easy for me to forget what it means. I can get caught up in living my life, going through the motions of Christianity until the going gets tough. Things don't go how I want them to. I begin to question God. Then I try to fix them. I try to become the Christian I should be. It never works. I try to get to Jesus on my own. My faith is based on grace not works. On Jesus' death and resurrection. Yet somehow, I forget that so easily. This chapter was good for me to read, especially around Easter. It helped me gear my mind toward the abundance of grace God shows me each day.
