“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid” (John 14:27). Environmental peace has eluded us, and we cannot stake our hope on what the world offers. See daily news from the Middle East, Russia, Ukraine, Ethiopia, the riots in Kenya, Haiti, Britain, France, etc. Insecurity in Nigeria and some cities in the US. The peace Jesus Christ promised is different. It is internal, eternal, unshakable, unchangeable, and guaranteed by the Almighty, Powerful, and Faithful Creator – God. You can begin to experience this peace when you make peace with God by being reconciled with Him through Jesus Christ. When you surrender to the Lordship of Jesus Christ, you and God will be okay; then you will have peace. Peace in this world? Not guaranteed. Peace with God, yes! Even peace within you is guaranteed. As Christians, we can be robbed of our happiness, but we cannot be robbed of our peace. Shalom!
