Be good, do better, try harder. These are all ways that we can think we will be enough for God. The problem is that these ways will only lead to terror. When have I tried hard enough for a perfect God? What is good enough for him? But Jesus offers a better way. He is our mediator and in the place of fear he gives us pardon and peace before God. We don’t need to approach God on our terms, but we can approach him on his terms knowing that his way ends in celebration with him.
