peace

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 rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.

—Romans 5:1-2

Peace.

Given what I have been through in the last two months, it is hard to imagine that I can have peace.

It is hard for me to believe that there is peace.

But we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.

Hope.

I have hope that these things I am going through are just things.

I have hope that I will come to peace with the craziness.

Because we have peace, with God, through Jesus.
