John 16:33 (ESV) 33 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.”
One said recently, "I have no peace," asked if he had trusted Jesus, he replied, "When I was young I went down to the front of the church and I believe I was changed." The life of an unbeliever to a believer is still the same unless you receive something from Jesus, namely His Presence enters your life and you become His. The man was then asked, "Did everything change in your life, did you begin to follow Jesus with all your heart," he replied sadly, "No!" The transformation of the unbeliever to the saved believer is one of changed heart, mind, will and emotions, unless you have asked him to enter on that plane, there is no relationship in Jesus.
Jesus says, "In Me you have peace," to know Him is to know real peace, the world will continue for a season to be a place of tribulation, however the day is coming when even the world will pass away, for the appearing of all God's Glory through the Savior, Jesus The Christ. Do you have Peace?
Heavenly Father, everything depends on our trusting you with all our being, help us to see clearly the work You want to do in us. May the Peace You are, touch every area of our lives. Amen
