This season has been a very difficult one for many of us, with health concerns, job concerns, lockdown, loneliness, anxiety, and so on. We continue to face challenges as a result of COVID-19, in addition to other normal day-to-day challenges. But Romans reminds us that we have been saved from death, justified by faith, through Jesus Christ. In this knowledge, knowing that we will make it through even the most difficult circumstances, we are called to rejoice in the promises and blessings of Christ.
