Bingo...what the BoM is saying here is that Grace only kicks in AFTER all you can do.
My question: "When can you say you have ever done all you can do?"
Hint: Never. We'll never do everything we can do. For we all fall short of the glory of God (Romans).

Who said anything about earning the Glory of God? That comes “by grace after all we can do”. I can do everything in my power, then I know that Christ will save me when I die, he does not require that I run faster than I have strength, only as fast.
If you are asking when I can rest on my laurels, the answer is Never. We do not rest while tending the flock, nor on the battle field, after this life is over there will be plenty of time to “Rest up”, but I believe only those in hell will be bored (think of it eternity after eternity with nothing to do.. Hell)
