Peace

Those Who Believe in God and Jesus!!
Those Who Know That Jesus Will Come Back And Bring Us Into His Home With Many Rooms!!

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. John 14: 27

This is Jesus speaking.
He promises us peace.
Most of us think this is absence of war, of trouble, of striving.

And our Father, our God is good.
So He does promise this.
For He knows we are human.
For He knows we are hurting.
For He knows we have needs in this life.
If He didn’t plan to save us from enemies, our human version of peace in this life, then why would He constantly come down and fight our battles.
He promises to set us free from all our troubles.

But Jesus is speaking of Himself personally.
That He hasn’t come at that time to remove their human oppressor, their political oppressors.

That this was His first coming to earth.
That He was on earth to bring us peace inside ourselves.
That He was on earth to fight our greatest battle first.
That He was on earth to fight the enemy of our souls.
Which then gives us peace with our Father in Heaven.
Which gives us greater peace in our all circumstances.

For now we know that we have a Heavenly Father who is looking out for us, daily.
So we can trust Him in the painful circumstances.

For now we know that we have life beyond the grave.
So we can have peace through loss, and sickness.

For now we know we have greater knowledge of life and eternity around us.
So we know that there is a greater plan and greater purpose for all we are going through.

May we know that we know that we know Jesus offers all people this peace.

May we know that we know that we know all we have to do is ask Him to be our Lord and He will do this.

May we know that we know that we know this whole season of life is simply a time to choose, if we want this peace that Jesus offers.
