Romans 5:1-2 highlights the profound nature of grace, which is more than a simple prayer but a deep blessing from God. Through His grace, we are gifted salvation—a blessing we did not earn or deserve. Gods favor is evident in our reconciliation with Him through the sacrifice of Jesus, which transitions us from darkness to light and allows us to live as His children. Despite our past spiritual deadness and self-centeredness, faith in Jesus brings us new life and justification, establishing our right standing before God and crediting us with Christ’s righteousness. Embracing this truth, we are called to live in and give thanks for Gods favor.
