Divine Grace

I am continuing to seek guidance on how to live in Christ, how to trust in him, how to live in faith, how to accept that his grace is sufficient for each moment. It seems that seeking guidance on how to do this myself is ironically reflective of the problem.
"The idea that many Christians have of grace is this: that their conversion and pardon are God's work, but that now in gratitude to God, it is their work to live as Christians and follow Jesus...No, wandering one, as it was Jesus who drew thee when He spake "Come", so it is Jesus who keeps thee when He says "Abide." The grace to come and the grace to abide are alike from Him alone."
My tears flow tonight. Lord God by your grace may I abide in you and you alone.
