John 14:27
“ I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.”
There is peace and then there is PEACE. One which cometh from the Lord and one which the world gives. What the world offers us is the idea of peace, the shadow of it, and what it could look like. What God gives us real is the peace that comes from His Spirit. One that settles in our hearts, and our souls, our mind, and our spirit. One that separates us from the world. With the peace of God, all things can be sour but your hearts and your entire being will you be deeply resting in the Lord.
The gift of peace is such a powerful and amazing gift and we’ve been privileged to be given this by our Father. It is also one that we cannot buy. As humans, we typically do many things to gain peace but the sad thing is that this worldly peace is temporary and will fade away. It will disappear when you need it the most. Things like vacations and spas etc. don’t last but for only a moment. God’s peace is Everlasting and it can calm any storm in your life. It can put your heart to rest in every circumstance. So take up the gift that God has graced you with and enjoy your peace of mind.
