Peace

Peace With God

"Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ."
Romans 5:1

Reflection

Before there is peace inside, there must be peace with God. Jesus settled that, and so everything else can be calm.

Prayer

Jesus, thank You for bringing me peace with the Father. Amen!
