“Christ died. He left a will in which He gave His soul to His Father, His body to Joseph of Arimathea, His clothes to the soldiers, and His mother to John. But to His disciples, who had left all to follow Him, He left not silver or gold, but something far better – His PEACE!“
Matthew Henry (1662-1714)
Peace of God, peace with God … who could ask for anything more?
Good morning, Lord. I am grateful for Your peace: the peace I have, knowing my sins are forgiven; peace of mind, knowing I am no longer lost and never alone; the ability to keep my peace, knowing that vengeance is Yours and it’s not up to me to get even; peace in speech, the ability to give gentle answers when others are angry. Indeed, Your peace passes understanding (Philippians 4:7).
