“Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” - Romans 5:1
On our Romans Road journey we have learned that we are ALL sinners and that none of us is worthy to go to heaven when we die. But those who do choose to follow Jesus will be given a gift - to spend their eternal lives with Him in heaven.
It has been said that "the road to hell is paved with good intensions." One could also add that that same road has been paved with good deeds, if they have been done in order to gain entry into heaven. Here is a better saying:
"The road to heaven is paved with the blood of Jesus Christ Our Lord."
The best part of any journey is finally being at home and for the Christian, that home is heaven. Personally, I can't wait to arrive there.
Are you troubled with the things that are going on in the world right now? If you are, that's good. That's because you know that there has got to be something better. That's called hope.
And faith is believing that something yet to happen WILL happen.
Trust in the Lord today if you haven't done so already. Jesus loves you and actually died for you, all so that you could live. Choose life! Then, and only then, can you find peace in your life.
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:6-7
