Happiness is... Discovering Genuine Peace: Chapter 51 - Part I Peace I leave you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Your heart must not be troubled or fearful. –JOHN 14:27 HCSB One aspect of spiritual health is the ability to partake in the peace that only God can give. Are you willing to accept God’s peace? If you can genuinely answer that question with a resounding yes, then you are richly blessed. But if you have not yet discovered “the peace that passes all understanding,” today is a wonderful day to find it. The beautiful words of John 14:27 gives us hope: “Peace I leave you, My peace I give you...” Jesus offers us peace, not as the world gives, but as He alone gives. We, as believers, can accept His peace or ignore it. When we accept the peace of Jesus Christ into our hearts, our lives are transformed. And then, because we possess the gift of peace, we can share that gift with family members, friends and the world. If, on the other hand, we choose to ignore the gift of peace –for whatever reason—we simply cannot share what we do not possess. Today, as a gift to yourself, to your family and to your friends, make peace with the past by forgiving those who have harmed you. Then claim the inner peace that is your spiritual birthright: the peace of Jesus Christ. It is offered freely; it has been paid for in full and is yours for the asking. So ask…. and then share!
