Peace I leave with you

April 30, 2008

John 14 is one of my favorite chapters in the bible. I can never seem to get enough of it, particularly the 27th verse. “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

The Peace that Jesus had is ours! That is so cool! The Peace that he had when the people were about to stone him and he walked through their midst unharmed. The Peace he had while sleeping in the boat during a storm. The Peace he had as he saw Judas leave the Last Supper. The Peace that he had as the Jews shouted for him to be crucified while they also called for the release of Barabbas. And finally the Peace He had as He said “It is finished”.

As we enter His Rest we also have his Peace. Hallelujah!!

Shalom
