“Give up your success-and-failure patterns. Seek grace in Christ, humbly and
honestly. Understand that a conviction of sin does not make you neurotic, but
rather it spells the beginning of the end for neurosis. After all, what is a
neurotic? Simply a hurting person who is closed off to criticism in any form and
yet engages in the most intense, destructive self criticism that produces
neither hope nor help.
What a marvelous relief God’s grace in Christ offers. I had been totally
criticized, and at the same time I was completely forgiven. As I rested in the
work of another, my heart was at peace with God; and for the first time, I felt
at peace with myself.
