Peace I leave with you; My [own] peace I now give and bequeath to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. [Stop allowing yourselves to be agitated and disturbed; and do not permit yourselves to be fearful and intimidated and cowardly and unsettled.]” John 14:27 (AMPC)
Here is a priceless gift you have been given, cherished one—freely granted in its entirety, by the One Who loves you so—peace, His peace—not as the world knows it or tries to offer, but real, unwavering, soul soothing, peace! God knows what life can throw at you to wear you down or wear you out. Here and now, He invites you to step away from the chaos and confusion and step into something far greater than it all—His life, His heart, His perfect peace! There is nothing temporary, fragile or fleeting here, for the actual substance of peace is found in Christ alone. “Stay close.” Jesus says. “Trust Me and see for no storm exists inside of Me.”

This treasure, freely given, is the substance of God’s own heart for You, meant simply, to receive. He knows the intended outcome, His original design, how to fix what is broken, how to work it all out in His perfect way and time. Lean you ear upon His heart; feel the calm He carries for you. His gift of peace, the mystery and the miracle of it, can abide also in you.

Peace that silences the siren song of fear and allows you to restnas nothing else will do. Take heart, beloved one. Let courage be your guide. He will give you all you need, and Jesus, Who is the Prince of Peace, the One forever committed to your good, will wrap you up in His arms of love, calm the stirred up seas, and carry you securely through!


Prayer:

I welcome You today, Jesus, as the Prince of Peace. I need You to come in the fullness of Who You are and speak Your words of calm assurance in all the places I worry—in all the weight I try to carry that I know can only be carried by You.

You are Holy, Majestic, and Glorious. You are great and You are grand. Help me to take my eyes off the circumstances and place them fully on You. For You have all of this, and so much more, in Your strong and capable hands, and You have me too.

Come, Lord Jesus of the Living God. Calm the storms in my life, still the churned-up seas, and show me how to find my rest and my peace, in the quietness of Your redeeming love. 

With my eyes fixed on You, Jesus, and with confident assurance of Who You are, and great hope in all You can do, I pray.
