Grace
It is said that in all things, He works for the good of those who love Him and are called to His purposes.. But I suspect, in His grace, He still works for the good of those who do not Love Him enough.. He accepts "trust", even if it is not "with all your heart" (Prov3:5)..
Christianity is not a high minded religion at all.. Our Lord accepts our approaches from impure motives, accepts our sins, accepts our faith as mustard seed.. If we were to think that He would accept none except those who come to Him in adoration and Love, who would stand?? Surely He accepts those who come out of fear, out of the lack of choice..
Quite amazing..

So true. After all, it is by God's grace that we approach His throne. We wouldn't survive a second by our own righteousness. We are reconciled with God because of Christ's righteousness.
