The Christian is at war with his old way of thinking. We so crave the affirmation of success that we over invest ourselves in accomplishment to achieve status. We become human doings. We achieve, therefore we are! Grace stands this kind of thinking on its head. We are not valued through our doings, but valued based on grace. We are human beings, made in the image of God, and redeemed through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. As followers of Jesus our thoughts are changed, and changed thinking leads to changed living. Humility is not self abasement, but self awareness. We know who we are, what we have received, and that all we do is only because of all that has been done for us.
