James 3:2 We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.

Which area(s) do you find the most likely to cause you to sin and stumble? For me I'd say it's lusting, embarrassing to admit, but it clearly is one I struggle against a lot.

I struggle with the need for additional works/legalism. I don't know grace from others but God I do. I grew up with only ever receiving attention IF I did something for my parents - I earned it [ they were divorced and very disconnected, unavailable, abusive] growing up into my even my adult years]. It struggle that God can truly give salvation that freely at times. But I know His Word is the inherent authority over my life. My emotions do not have the final say. Doesn't mean Satan doesn't try to dig up and cause me to feel like I need to "do" something. I am a type A personality. Which is a recipe of disaster for individualism [apart from God - rebellion]. I have to constantly surrender, lay my emotions and experiences down. I know when I am struggling so much - I know that His Word and promise is what I cling to. Regardless of what my flesh says and Satan contiunes to use my past as a way for me to stumble. It was definitely a temptation and I pray the Lord to keep me humble. Broken before Him.

CHRIST + something = false.
CHRIST ALONE.
BY FAITH ALONE.
THROUGH GRACE ALONE.
SALVATION.

Thank you for your honesty. It may become a strength in the sharing of this to others. The example becomes the motivator for others.
