About this listen
We explore how spiritual danger often looks ordinary while the ground beneath us thins, and why striving harder can make us sink deeper. We point to grace as solid ground and to Jesus as the one who bears the weight we cannot.
• hidden dangers beneath “safe” routines
• slow drift from prayer, faith, and honesty
• self-reliance versus surrender to grace
• John the Baptist’s rescue signal: behold the Lamb
• Jesus bearing collapse rather than shouting advice
• grace as firm footing in ordinary life
• the courage to admit “I cannot stand here”
• a simple reach out instead of impressive effort
Behold the Lamb of God. Look to him. The one who stands where you cannot, the one who bears what you carry, the one who will not let the ground collapse beneath you. Stop fighting the ground that cannot hold you. Trust the hand that can reach out and grab you back on to solid ground.
