God's grace and obedience to Him

Romans 5:3 And not only so but we glory in the tribulations also knowing the tribulations worketh patience. Not only do we rejoice in His glory but in the trouble that is befalling us. And the reason is that in our troubles we are developing endurance and patience because God is there.

Romans 5:4 And patience experience and experience hope. This is basically indicating God is training us and it deepens the hope we have in His glory and protectiveness..

Romans 5:5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. And we are not ashamed to hope for His glory and to hope during times of trouble because we are brimming over with the banquet of love God has given us by endowing us with His holy Spirit. Meaning that we look at life differently, for the times we struggle are for us to gain a new perspective on God.

Romans 5:6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. When we were powerless (because of sin) Christ died at the appointed time for all of us. (we are all ungodly without Him) Christ died at God's timing.
