Romans 5:1-5

The fact that through Jesus and what He did on the cross, we are at peace with God, we are no longer an enemy of the Father. Knowing this should bring a rejoicing - knowing where we were and now where we are, and where we will be. But it's not an easy time - there will be suffering. The Word says we are to rejoice in that suffering because if we persevere during the suffering, it will bring character, being transformed into the likeness of His Son. And that character will bring hope that does not disappoint.
