VERSE:
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have
peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have
gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And
we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.
-- Romans 5:1-2

THOUGHT:
Peace is more than the mercurial, vaporous, whimsical wish of
folks who just want everyone to get along and things to be calm.
The peace the apostle Paul is describing here, peace with God, goes
much deeper than simply a desire for calm and for a lack of
conflict. Jesus, through his sacrificial obedience to God, has made
peace with God real for us. Yes, God provided it by grace. Yes, God
is the one who insures it because of that grace. But, because this
peace is tied to him and his character, we can rejoice and
anticipate being caught up in the glory of our glorious God.
PRAYER:
O great Majesty on high, I praise you for the gift of your grace
in Jesus. Give me confidence and trust so that I may stand, secure
and emboldened to live for you, with a life full of hope and joy.
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
