“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
Many people think of peace as the absence of problems, as the feeling that is experienced when all is well. But the peace of the Lord is not related to circumstances at all. In fact, God’s peace comes to us and endures…regardless of life’s circumstances.
Tonight, remember these truths about the peace of our Lord: Our peace has nothing to do with daily challenges or crises, and everything to do with knowing that our times are in God’s hands. Our peace has nothing to do with the conditions of our life, and everything to do with knowing that God is all-sufficient. Our peace is an inward repose and serenity of soul that indicates a heart at rest — regardless of our circumstances—as we place complete confidence in God moment by moment.
PRAYER:
Dear God,
Your peace is my refuge. Thank you for leaving your peace for me. I pray your presence over me tonight. Lead me to your rest and care. In Jesus name, Amen.
