PJP2 THANKS 160214 Romans 5:1-5

Psalm 118:1 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."Oh Give Thanks To The Lord, Foe He Is Good; For His Steadfast Love Endures Forever!"....

PJP2 THANKS TEXT 160214 Romans 5:1-5 (NIV/emphasis added/jaj)...."Therefore, Since we have been Justified Through Faith, we have Peace With God Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Through Whom we have Gained Access By Faith into This Grace in which we now Stand.  And we Boast in The Hope of The Glory of God.  Not only so, But we also Glory in our sufferings, Because we Know That suffering Produces Perseverance; Perseverance, Character; And Character, HOPE.  And HOPE Does Not put us to shame, Because God’s LOVE Has Been Poured Out Into our Hearts Through The Holy Spirit, Who Has Been Given To us."....

I am Thankful for our Lord Jesus's Saving Grace.  Through His Sacrifice and Resurrection, I am Thankful that - (a) we are Justified Through Faith in Him; (b) we have Peace With God (our Relationship with God The Father Is Reconciled) Through our Lord Jesus Christ; (c) we have Gained Access to God The Father by our Faith in His Son; (d) our HOPE is Fully In Him; (e) His Grace is With us even in our sufferings; (f) Jesus Transforms our sufferings into a vehicle which Produces: Perseverance; Character; HOPE (He Modeled this for us via His Life, Death and Resurrection); (g) God's LOVE is Ever With us, Guaranteed by His Holy Spirit's Presence

Thus, in honor of St. Valentines' Day 2016 - May you and yours Be Blessed By God The Father's Love in all your ways today and every day.  Blessings/jaj
