Establishing our own righteousness

Rom10:3 For they being ignorant of God;s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. God has been dealing with me about this lately,how I've become so focus on following the "rules" to make sure I am being holy. This is establishing your own righteousness when you become legalistic and forgetting about the grace of God. When you don't trust God enough to change you inside and out, so you subconsciously have a list of rules that defines holiness... and that isn't of God. We aren't under the law anymore, but under the Grace of God. ( Just because we are under the grace of God doesn't give us a way for us to sin willingly though...You don't want to frustrate the Grace of God) Amen
