My peace I give unto you. - John 14:27
Peace is an invaluable blessing, it is the gift of Jesus. None but believers know the sweetness of the peace He bestows. He made it by shedding His blood.
He proclaims it in the everlasting gospel. He bestows it upon us when we believe, and it is enjoyed in the heart under the influence of the Holy Spirit. It is peace with God. A peaceful conscience. The beginning of heaven in the soul. He gives it often when in the midst of trouble; and it makes every burden light, every trouble less, and the sinner happy in every situation.
O Jesus! give us Thy peace this morning! Let it reign and rule in our hearts this day. Believer, look only to Jesus for peace, for "He is our peace." Believe His word, receive His atonement, trust in His perfect work, aim to show forth His praise, and peace which passeth all understanding shall fill your mind.
Let it be your daily prayer, that you may enjoy this peace in death; for then you will die happy, honourably, and safely. Seek it as a gift of grace, and you shall enjoy it to the honour of God.
Close to my Saviour’s bloody tree,
My soul untired shall ever cleave;
Both scourged and crucified for me,
With Christ resolved to die and live:
My prayer, my grand ambition this,
Living and dying to be His.
