Galatians 3

Paul continues to address the false teaching the Galatians have begun to believe. I find it interesting that we still deal with these issues - the LAW verses FAITH. It is so hard for us to believe that faith is all we need. That's it, the simple believe that Jesus is God's Son, that He died on a cross for our sins, & that He rose again, breaking the curse of sin over our lives. Instead, we think we need to DO something, that we need to be better, that we can be good enough if only we just try harder. But we, in our fallen state corrupted by sin, can never climb our way out. We can never reverse the harm we've done. It takes someone bigger than us to help us out of the pit we have dug for ourselves & that person is Jesus Christ.

So, stop trying to be good enough. By relying on your abilities you are telling God that you don't need Him when you really, really do. Reach out to God, rely on His strength and find the peace & wholeness you have been searching for.
