We will grasp hold of the life fulfilled that serves others and is pleasing to God:
- when we refuse to be subject to law and rely fully on God’s grace
- when we refuse to use grace as a license to supply our own desires
- when we rely on the Holy Spirit to lead us to accomplish our responsibilities to Christ

A Christian’s responsibility is to do good to all people. This starts at home and then extends to our neighbors.
