This Sunday, please join me - Kat of CatHouse Chat - for a study in Romans 5. I am currently endeavoring to memorize Romans, chapters 5 through 8, and my focus over the next several weeks will be the thoughts and discoveries God shows me in these chapters.
All week, I’ve been wrestling with chapter 5, verses 1 through 5:
Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope. Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
and God has been seriously kicking my poor, sore rear end (um, can I say that? LOL) and showing me a lot of excellent applications for my life and my attitude. Here’s a taste of what I have so far:
One thing we can take away from this is that, whatever we **feeeeeeellll**, the FACT is that God says His children stand in His grace continually. So, we shouldn’t whine and moan about how we “don’t feeeeel the touch of His grace!” God’s Word says we are there already, and that we will remain there.
Therefore, the problem is not with God, it’s with us. We need to change our thoughts, change our attitudes, and eventually change our emotions to align with God’s Word. We STAND in His grace, so let’s start acting like it!

See? He’s really working me over this week… Actually, at the moment, I’m not certain I’ll even get past verses 1 and 2, because He’s teaching me so much right here.
(UPDATE: Yep. I was right - I’m staying in verses 1 and 2 this week, but I HAVE been good and memorized vv. 1-5… and there’s a LOT of excellent goodness in these two verses.)
So join me this Sunday, 4:30 p.m. Eastern, 1:30 p.m. Pacific, and find out if what God is teaching me can help and encourage YOU, as well!
