“My Peace I Give You”
“All
this I have spoken while still with you. But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit,
whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind
you of everything I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give
you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be
troubled and do not be afraid.
“You
heard me say, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’ If you loved me,
you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than
I. I have told you now before it happens, so that when
it does happen you will believe. I will not say much more to you, for the
prince of this world is coming. He has no hold over me, but he comes so that the world may
learn that I love the Father and do exactly what my Father has commanded me.
“Come
now; let us leave.
John 14:25-31
We
can have things in life, but they cannot bring us peace. Only Jesus can give us
peace.
Jesus
gives us the peace we need. The gift of peace comes from Jesus, and only from
Jesus.
Have
you asked for His peace?
Jesus died in our place to give us His peace.
