You Want Peace?
“Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give
to you as the world gives. Your heart must not be troubled or fearful. (John 14:27)
The peace Jesus gives
remove all our fears and worries. When we
surrender ourselves to the peace Christ provides we become more they conquers. We become victorious when we surrender to
Christ. Jesus speak words of peace to us
as we face the trails temptations and problems of the world each day. Jesus promise we can have peace that goes beyond
our comprehension. Jesus remained us we
will have problem in this life, but He also remained us He has overcome the
world. “33 I have told you these
things so that in Me you may have peace. You will have suffering in this world.
Be courageous! I have conquered the world.”” (John 16:33)
