When you think of Jesus what’s the first thing that pops into your head? For me it’s His love. A love so strong, Jesus laid down His life to call me His own. And I in return love Him.

Have you ever heard of Romans Road? It’s not an actual road, but rather a series of Bible verses from the book of Romans laying out the path to salvation. One of the most read books in the Bible, Romans contains the wisdom of Paul concerning our walk with Jesus. In it the apostle tells us to rejoice in hope, be patient in trials, and always pray. We rejoice knowing that whatever problems we face, God has already won the battle and given us victory. And the hope we place in Him, results in much needed rest and peace for our troubled souls. (Ps. 62.5) Endurance and patience in all things, especially the bad, keeps us from giving up and giving in before we see the light God promises at the end of the tunnel. And most importantly, being constant in prayer keeps our mind focused not on the problem, but the problem solver. Prayer is one of our greatest weapons against the schemes of the Enemy. And we know that each prayer is carried by our great Intercessor, Jesus Christ, who lays them at God’s throne of grace, and sees everyone answered!
