MY PEACE is the treasure of treasures: “the pearl of great price.” It is an exquisitely costly gift, both for the Giver and the receiver. I purchased this Peace for you with My blood. You receive this gift by trusting Me in the midst of life’s storms. If you have the world’s peace—everything going your way—you don’t seek My unfathomable Peace. Thank Me when things do not go your way, because spiritual blessings come wrapped in trials. Adverse circumstances are normal in a fallen world. Expect them each day. Rejoice in the face of hardship, “for I have overcome the world.” Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it. —Matthew 13:46 (NKJV) My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, —James 1:2 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” —John 16:33 Taken from: “Jesus Calling”—“Enjoying Peace in His Presence” Devotions for Every Day of the Year by Sarah Young
