I find I am too quick to use that as an excuse to keep sinning instead of a source of rededication to righteousness out of gratitude for what Jesus has done for me.
That may be just me, though.
Shalom.
It's not just you...and you're right, many do use that as an excuse. The difference is that as believers, we don't keep on sinning (as a habit of life). That's what repentance (turning away from sin and going in a new direction) is all about. Praise God for His unmerited favor in such things, eh?
