Are you under stress? Worried about tomorrow? Personal inward struggles that's holding you back from reaching greater heights in life?
Well, Peace is your answer. Whose peace? Jesus'.
John 14:27
Peace (Shalom) I leave with you, my peace (Shalom) I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you.
Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Have you received Jesus as your Saviour? Then you have also received His Peace!
Peace is not just a state of mind. It is all encompassing in its "Shalom" sense.
Jesus said," Shalom I leave with you, My Shalom I give to you." Besides giving us Shalom in its general sense, He gives us His own Shalom.
When Jesus was scourged, striped, pierced with a crown of thorns on His temples, was He at peace? NO! He willingly gave up His own Shalom for me, you and the rest of the world!
Have you received His Shalom Peace in your life, today? It is TODAY, that you receive His Shalom. HE is a very present, very now Shalom. Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, He IS your Peace.
