This is what the LORD, your Defender, the Holy One of Israel, says: I am the LORD your God. I teach you what is best for you. I lead you where you should go. -Isaiah 48-7
His Perfect Peace
Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things-
– but ONE thing is necessary.
Mary has chosen the GOOD portion-
-which will NOT be taken away from her.”
John 10:41-42
“I have said these things to you, that in Me you may have peace,
In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart;
I have overcome the world.”
John 16:33
“Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you,
Not as the world gives do I give to you,
Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.”
John 14:27
The Lord knows the heart – He knows the troubled and anxious breast,
The Lord knows that His wonderful peace is freely available to calm the anxious one,
And so He reaches out with words that only He can utter.
Let not your heart be troubled, beloved child, neither be afraid,
Here is my peace for you, my precious children,
I give My peace to you. John 14:27
You are more precious to Him than the sparkling universe and the riches of the world,
He loves you more dearly than human understanding can fathom,
And He is the God of comfort when the human heart is faint from exhaustion.
He loves to place little lighted candles in our dark chambers of pain and sorrow,
He delights to gently kiss away the tears of sadness and replace them with joy.
He is able to comfort because He is Incarnate Comfort – the Great Comforter,
He gives His own peace to those He delights in,
He offers the same peace that kept Him quiet and calm during His own earthly walk.
Peace I leave with you,
MY peace I give unto you:
Not as the world giveth, give I unto you. John 14:27
Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:1
