Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:27 (NKJV)
The world is dominated and driven by what’s happening outside. When everything is going on right or as a person wants then they can have peace but the slightest bit of disturbance kills all their peace.
But Jesus has given us a kind of Peace that surpasses the thinking of the world. This is inward Peace that’s not subject to anything that’s happening outside no matter how unsettling or threatening. This is the very Peace of God in us. Because God is independent of and above everything, His Peace is independent and above everything around us. The Peace of God in us is based on the assurance that the God of Peace is in us, with us, and for us, therefore nothing shall by any means harm or hurt us. Romans 8:32.
