Peace is a Person
Peace isn’t primarily a feeling.
Peace is a person: Jesus Christ.
He is never anxious or worried.
When He said I am leaving you My peace, He meant that He was giving us Himself!! He sent the Holy Spirit to indwell and live within us, who by faith trust in Jesus for the Forgiveness of our sins. By the Holy Spirit’s power we are able to rest in Him and experience His peace as we yield control of our lives to Him and trust in His goodness and love for us.
In 2 Peter 1:4 He says that His precious promises (such as John 14:27) are given so that we can experience His divine nature as we live in Him. We can experience His peace and have it be our daily portion.
Life is all about yielding to Him moment by moment, and as I do…peace.
