Before we ever sought Him, He sought us. Before we knew how to call upon Him, He stirred our hearts and drew us to Himself. Through Christ, we are justified, adopted as God's children, and given a peace that the world cannot provide.\nThis peace does not depend on our circumstances, our performance, or our ability to get everything right. It flows from the unchanging love of God and the assurance that we belong to Him forever. As recipients of such grace, we are called to live with eternal perspective, sowing seeds of faith, hope, kindness, and mercy in the lives of others.\nWhether you are facing uncertainty, striving for control, or longing for deeper assurance, this message reminds us that justification by faith is more than a theological concept—it is a lifeline. We have peace with God—not because of what we have done, but because of what Christ has done for us.\n📖 Scripture: Romans 5:1–5\n🕊️ Preacher: Bp.
