I'm just going to keep my hope in his great and wonderful mercy and Grace. Because even though I don't want to sometimes I fail, and even when I do good I see failure is right there with me in the form of pride or thinking myself justified by the good thing. Even in my best Great Grace is required because I fail.

It seems that your heart is in the right place.
It's the condition of one's heart that matters.
BACs who are in the right place will be desiring
to please their LORD and Savior through loving Him,
obeying Him, practicing righteousness, enduring, etc.

True saving belief/faith = enduring belief-faith-trust in Jesus,
loving and obeying Jesus, practicing righteousness, stopping habitual sin,
etc. >>> all that is asked of you in the NT (God's New Covenant)

In 4 verses in John 14, Jesus said (paraphrasing):
"Those who love Me will obey My commandments."

Who gets into heaven who does NOT love Jesus?

Here is where you are missing the mark.
You are not obeying Jesus.
You are trusting in self for salvation when He said to trust Him.
