Peace
Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Romans 5:1 ESVhttps://bible.com/bible/59/rom.5.1.ESV
We often try and justify ourselves. This is a hopeless task. As Romans has already explained, we've all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.
Thankfully, we can be justified through faith in Christ crucified on our behalf. Justification isn't just a kind of legal standing where we're all good with God. It means we're reconciled to Him.
God doesn't just justify us and leave us to our own devices. He wants a relationship with us. It's possible through faith in Jesus.
Peace isn't just an absence of hostilities. It's about holistic wellbeing. Whatever's going on in the world, we can be confident that all is well between us and God.
'God of peace, please justify us through faith in Christ crucified. Then let us enjoy peace with You. In His name, amen'
