5 words that have always encouraged me from the Apostle Paul.
Notice the order of Grace and Peace.
People everywhere (especially today) are searching for peace. They are looking for it through relationships, religion, politics, and health.
But notice what Paul wrote. Grace and Peace.
In order to find true peace in our lives, we must first understand God's Grace.
His Grace, unmerited favor, is beyond what this world can comprehend.
Paul explains it as such,
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
— Romans 5:8
Despite the wretched sinner that you and I are, Christ took the Wrath of God in our place so that we may be made right in His Eyes.
What a glorious gift.

All for His Glory,
