But I need something more! For if I know the law but still can’t keep it, and if the power of sin within me keeps sabotaging my best intentions, I obviously need help! I realize that I don’t have what it takes. I can will it, but I can’t do it. I decide to do good, but I don’t really do it; I decide not to do bad, but then I do it anyway. My decisions, such as they are, don’t result in actions. Something has gone wrong deep within me and gets the better of me every time.
–Romans 7:17-20 (MSG)
If you read this set of verses and say, Wow that’s me in a nutshell! then welcome. You have found your people. Frequently as Christians, we fail, and we screw up. We are pegged as hypocrites because, well, we can be and oftentimes we are. Like anyone else in life, Christians have issues, and we don’t always handle them right or well. Just because we carry the name Christian, it doesn’t make us magically infallible. This mentality tends to leave us in a place of utter aloneness.
Y'all, we were never alone to begin with! We don’t have to stay in the place of hurt, harm, and hypocrisy! This book explains God’s grace and sovereignty over our lives through some heavy and some normal life struggles, digging deep into the meaning of the hymn His Eye is on the Sparrow by Civilla Martin, changing our Sundays-only-Christian mentality into someone who’s willing to plead with Christ and other Christians to change our character to be more like His.
