You may want to read Romans 3:24-26, and Ephesians 2:8-10.  You might really enjoy these versed in the Classic Amplified Bible.

God gives the promise of rest...so where is the rest?

God is constantly at work to bring out this "new" life in us!

The reality is that God lives inside of Believers.

We have a void only God can fill...even if you don't know it!

John 6:29  Jesus tells us what the work is that believers are to do.  It might surprise you what it is!

The real function of the law was to make men recognize and become conscious of sin!  To make them fully aquainted with sin and move them to repentance!

Made us alive, reanimated us together with Christ.

It really is a gift!  Count on it!
