“Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” Romans 5:1 (ESV)
Today's verse might be very familiar to you, or perhaps you have not read it previously. It has a truth that is good to think about often – in fact, we really can't think about this truth too often. How do you react to these three words: peace with God? Have you experienced that peace? When you realize that Jesus has done all that is necessary to remove everything that has separated you from God, doesn't fill your heart with gratitude? Everything that is required for us to have peace with God has been accomplished by our Lord Jesus Christ. There is nothing we can do and there was nothing we ever could do on our own. We can live today, not apart from God, but in a close relationship with Him. Even though He is the Great God of the universe – God Almighty. He is the One in control of all things and we can live every day with Him as part of our lives. Let's be thankful today for the truth of this promise – we HAVE BEEN justified by faith through Jesus. We HAVE peace with God.
