Jesus Leaves His Peace

Today’s Reading: John 14:19-27


John 14:27 — 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.


God promises us to leave us with His peace. When Jesus left this planet, He did it in a way no other men do — He ascended bodily into heaven. And when He left, Jesus did not leave anything behind like other famous men do, but He left us with His peace.


Jesus did not leave us anything He had written. He did not leave behind anything He had made our built, like Solomon who had built a temple or Moses who left the ark of the covenant with the tablets of stone inside. Jesus left this earth with only the clothes on His back.


But Jesus said that He was leaving us His peace. How did He do that? One of the ways Jesus left His peace was through the life-changing words that He had spoken which His followers held in their hearts and later recorded in the four gospels.


Another way of leaving peace was in the lives of the people that He had touched. Peace had come into the lives of people who had been delivered from demons, healed from diseases and disabilities, and delivered from lives of sin through forgiveness, like the woman taken in adultery in John 8.


Jesus said that He had not come to bring peace but a sword (Matthew 10:34), but wherever He went, some people experienced a peace that this world could not give them. Perhaps one of the great symbols of peace Jesus left behind was the empty tomb. The empty tomb is a monument to our living Savior, our Prince of Peace.


Our risen Savior gave us the Gospel of Peace which has given us new life in Christ.

"Jesus left. His peace was through the life-changing words that He had spoken, which His followers held in their hearts"


Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then your will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.


Philippians 4:6-7


Thank you, Jesus!

묵상

"예수님께서 떠나셨습니다. 그의 평화는 그가 말씀하신 삶을 바꾸는 말씀으로 이루어졌고, 그의 추종자들은 그 말씀을 마음에 간직했습니다."

빌립보서 4:6-7 RNKSV

[6] 아무것도 염려하지 말고, 모든 일을 오직 기도와 간구로 하고, 여러분이 바라는 것을 감사하는 마음으로 하나님께 아뢰십시오. [7] 그리하면 사람의 헤아림을 뛰어 넘는 하나님의 평화가…
